2017 Appreciation Award
Dennis J. Stitch
The Mid Mon Valley All Sports Hall of Fame Appreciation Award is presented to an individual who has greatly contributed to making the Sports Hall of Fame a success. The person is chosen by the Special Event Committee and voted upon by the Board of Directors. The committee and directors take into account the individual’s dedication and commitment to the organization.
Our MMVASHOF Chairman of the Board of Directors, Dennis Stitch, has held that position since April 2003. In his role Dennis has continued to provide the necessary leadership to keep all of the committees functioning at high levels. His special connection with the Mon Valley gives the Hall of Fame an added boost in the Valley’s support of the annual induction banquet.
The Mid Mon Valley All Sports Hall of Fame is pleased and privileged to honor Mr. Stitch with our 2017 Appreciation Award. This recognition is being presented with sincere gratitude for Dennis’ longstanding support of the Valley’s Sports Hall of Fame.
