The Watervliet High School Athletic Hall of Fame welcomed its inaugural class in 2008, with plaques commemorating the careers of 20 former athletes and coaches. In 2009, 17 more former Watervliet legends answered the call.

With the construction of a new gymnasium currently ongoing, the Cannoneers are looking to raise a bit of money to pay for the new display cases that will be needed in the lobby.

To that end, the Hall of Fame committee is sponsoring a 300 brick campaign. 4x8 inch bricks will be sold for $100 apiece. Each may be engraved with a custom message and they will be permanently displayed around the lobby entrance.

For an application form, please contact Athletic Director Rick Cowles at 629-3303.

Construction is coming along on the project, which will make a definite difference in the outer appearance of the school. For the latest, click over to the school district's web site: www.vliet.neric.org

Construction of a new softball field is also underway at the elementary school. For more on that, click here.
