As part of the ceremony, the Hall of Fame will also present special achievement awards to South Stormont high school students who are currently reaching great athletic accomplishments.  Nomination period for students has recently passed and selected individuals representing a wide range of sports will be announced in the coming months.

President of the Sports Hall of Fame, Kristie Tate, was able to express her excitement as the organization is hosting its first event since 2018. “The volunteer executive committee was forced to miss the most recently planned events due to the pandemic, it is our honour to get back to recognizing the great athletes and builders that have been part of this community”     

The 2023 induction ceremony and dinner is scheduled for Friday, August 11, 2023 at the South Stormont Community Hall in Long Sault. Tickets for the event will be available for purchase starting July 4th during business hours at the Long Sault Arena.
