Meetings

The Interior Alaska Baseball Hall of Fame

 

In the spring of 2006 our club started discussing the possibility of an Interior Alaska Baseball Hall of Fame with the purpose of perpetuating the names of past or present individuals who through their contributions, leadership, or competitive skills enriched the general welfare, spirit, reputation, and/or progress of the game of baseball. 

 

In April 2009 we had our first induction ceremony which was a very successful event where we honored seven inductees.  In April 2010 five more were recognized along with an additional five in April 2011.  We added four more in 2014 and five in 2019 as seen below.  Our next five will be inducted on April 6th, 2024 and are listed below.

 

​If you know someone you think should be inducted into the Interior Alaska Baseball Hall of Fame and has contributed to baseball in the Interior of Alaska, please contact us by email at interiorbaseballlions@gmail.com.
