HOPE and VISION:
Page 8: Various titles, but one that took 26 years to realize
in 2010, the title of the piece "WISHES, HOPES and DREAMS"
"...Although there are a number of annual awards that are given
to our members, your editor would like to see the establishment
of something of a permanent nature. Therefore, we should
establish a:
BRITISH COLUMBIA AMATEUR BOXING HALL OF FAME"
2010 - For 26 years, the above idea became lost and forgotten
and just faded away, and the ashes of the idea were
like dust in the wind.
But, through the efforts of a small group, the idea was re-ignited
and the hopes, wishes and dreams became a reality with the start of the
BRITISH COLUMBIA AMATEUR BOXING HALL OF FAME.
September 2011, 27 long years since the 1984 idea, and ten
more inductees were recognized and added to the core
group of 15 and the count is now 25 in September.
And, in September 2012 there will be others to recognize and remember.
