Our associates have concluded a lengthy discussion of nominations
that were received via email, social media, phone calls and hand written
letters. Upon obtaining everyone's input, Coal Region Racing took on
the task of selecting twelve names into this year's Hall of Fame. The
overall decision was by no means an easy one to make. Many possibilities
that missed the cut will certainly be considered in future classes.
For the third straight year, the Hall of Fame Ceremony will take
place at the Schuylkill Haven (PA) Island Park. The picturesque setting
is a perfect location for the gathering of racing enthusiasts. The
dinner (provided this year by Hess Catering), events and inductions will
take place inside of the Rotary Pavilion. Ticket order and pricing
information will be released shortly. The event takes place on Sunday
June 30 with a start time of 1:00PM.
Recipients, friends and family will not want to miss this special
annual event. The Hall of Fame banquets are not just for the recipients
and families, however. It is also a perfect opportunity for fans to meet
with drivers and learn about the history of our sport. Many people will
bring along their racing memorabilia and trade stories throughout the
afternoon's course.
Presenting the 2024 Coal Region Racing Hall of Fame Inductees: Larry
Acker, Joe Bluis, Frankie Burke, Larry Graver, Doug Hoffman, Don Loder,
Keith Prutzman, Bill Quinter, Michael Radocha, Cecil Thompson, Warren
Ruffner (Peg and Jerry Frank Media Inductee), and Mary Ann Muscara
(George Stevenson Special Recognition).
