Bob Elliott has been awarded the J.G. Taylor Spink Award by the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, making him the first Canadian baseball writer to be so honored. We are pleased to announce that on Thursday February 23rd there will be a dinner to honour Bob and celebrate his induction. Proceeds from dinner and auction items will go to support East Nepean Little League’s fundraising quest as host of 2015 Canadian Little League Championships and Ottawa Nepean Canadians Baseball.
Bob was inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame in 2011. Bob is a one-of-a-kind treasure, not only to ONC, but nationally as Canadian baseball is his true passion for which he is a tireless ambassador.
This is truly an Ottawa baseball community event, including attendees from Team Canada, ONC alumni, Little Leagues ... and perhaps a few special guests ... coming together to pay tribute. Please join us in celebrating Bob’s prestigious accomplishments.
