2012 HALL OF FAME BANQUET “Welcome Aboard
New Hall of Famers” The Greater Washington Fastpitch
Softball Hall of Fame held its 49th Annual Hall of Fame Awards Banquet
on Saturday, November 3, 2012. The banquet was held for the sixth consecutive year at the Holiday Inn College
Park. More than two hundred (200) supporters of fast pitch softball, including twenty-six previously
inducted members of the Hall of Fame, and family and friends of the 2012 inductees attended to honor and celebrate the induction
of eight new members. The inductees were: McArthur Bishop Jillian Callaway Paul Higgs James ‘Bootie’ Holson James J. Holson Elvin Jackson Deb Rohr Cortez
‘Butch‘ West In addition, Hall of
Fame Commission presented the William Kaiser Special Recognition Award to the D.C. Sunday Softball League for its contribution
and commitment to fast pitch softball in the Washington Metropolitan area. One of the charter members of
the league, Burnett ‘Plook’ Childs, attended the banquet and accepted the award. The
2012 inductees raised to three hundred eight (308) the number of players, managers, umpires and sponsors of fast pitch softball
who have been honored by induction into the Greater Washington Fastpitch Softball Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame Commission thanks all that attended and who helped make the 49th annual banquet a success. Their presence was important to each inductee and their support is
crucial to the work of the Hall of Fame Commission. The Greater Washington
Fastpitch Softball Hall of Fame is tentatively scheduled to hold its 50th
Annual Hall of Fame Awards Banquet on Saturday, November 2, 2013, again at the Holiday Inn College Park. Plans are already underway
to for the 50th annual banquet and we are working to make it even more of a special event. If you have
suggestions regarding how make this event even more memorable please contact a Hall of Fame commissioner with your ideas or
