It’s time to put your nomination forward to the Burnaby Sports Hall of Fame.
The hall of fame, located inside the Bill Copeland Sports Centre, is calling on residents and sports organizations and associations to put forward a worthy candidate – athlete, coach, builder or team – that has brought honour through athletics to the city of Burnaby.
Candidates who are not from Burnaby but were competing or volunteering for a team or association in the city will be considered by the nomination committee.
A builder could include an administrator, referee, official, trainer or other volunteer position.
Nomination forms can be downloaded online from the hall site at www.burnabys
portshalloffame.ca.
Please fill out the nomination form completely and with as much supporting documentation as possible. Do not send original documents.
Completed nomination forms can be mailed or dropped off care of Jill Porter at the Burnaby Parks and Rec office, suite 101, 4946 Canada Way in Burnaby, V5G 4H7.
Nomination deadline is Monday, Nov. 17.
Voting for the induction class of 2014 will take place in December.
The Burnaby Sports Hall of Fame will hold its annual induction dinner and fundraising silent auction at the Firefighters’ Hall in Metrotown on Thursday, Feb. 26. Dinner tickets will go on sale in January.
