On Saturday, June 11th, folks from the neighborhood gathered at Hetzel’s Field (Columbia and Thompson) for the annual Old Timers Game. The league used to be called the Dave Rotan Men’s softball league.
William Shank II, 83, was honored for his numerous years of umpiring and dedication to the league. He was presented with a clock/plague by Greg Fox and William Wilcox. Shank threw out the first pitch and all the men passed around the “game ball,” which was signed by all the players.
