The Big Chill "Casino Night" returns to the Arts Center, 111 S. Washington St., Shelby from 6:30-11:00pm. No matter how cold it is outside, it will be a hot time inside the Arts Center! The event will feature an evening of fun, food, dancing and games while you take a chance on beating the odds to win great prizes. Returning this year is the opportunity to play Texas Hold'em. This was a hit last year with attendees as they played for a chance to win prizes donated by local businesses. Players must sign-up in advance for the tournament to participate. Two tournaments will be held and a $20 donation (in addition to admission ticket) is required to participate in each tournament. The Grand Prize Raffle this year is the chance to win a red, 1998 Mercedes-Benz SLK-230 Roadster. This beautiful 4 cylinder, supercharged sports car has been donated by Don and Emily Yelton and is in mint condition. Only 100 Grand Prize Raffle tickets will be sold for $50 (limit 5 per person). Tickets are on sale now at the Arts Center and the winner doesn't have to be present to win. New and unique items will be available to bid on in the silent auction, such as a private 2 hour flight which takes off from the Shelby Airport, pottery and other artwork, jewelry, clothing, gift certificates for restaurants, massages, health clubs and more. The Board of Directors and volunteers for the Arts Council will host this special fund raising event. The admission is $30 in advance or $35 at the door and all proceeds help to support the programs and events of the Cleveland County Arts Council. Admission tickets include $50 worth of "Casino Money" and heavy hors d'oeuvres. For more information please call 704-484-2787 or visit www.ccartscouncil.org. Please remember, what happens at the Arts Center, stays at the Arts Center! –Provided by Violet Arth / Cleveland County Arts Council Shelby Leaders To Be Inducted Into N.C. American Legion Baseball Hall of Fame Two leaders of the campaign to have Shelby and Cleveland County become the official home of The American Legion World Series will be inducted into the North Carolina American Legion Baseball Hall of Fame. On March 9th, during a ceremony in Newton, N.C. Edwin C. "Eddie" Holbrook and William James "Jim" Horn, co-chairmen of the Executive Committee of the American Legion World Series, will be among the inductees when the N.C. Department of the American Legion holds its 46th Baseball Hall of Fame Banquet. "I'm so proud of this induction choice," said N.C. Division Baseball Commissioner Roy Waters. "Nobody is more deserving to be in the Hall of Fame than Eddie and Jim. They're brought North Carolina to the top. There are not enough accolades to tell you what I think of these two men. They have done such a fantastic job bringing the World Series to North Carolina and making it a great success." Jim Quinlan, American Legion Baseball Program Coordinator, will be the featured speaker at the Hall of Fame Banquet. He has worked with Holbrook and Horn through all of their ALWS involvement. "Eddie and Jim are a great team and complement each other perfectly," Quinlan said. "They are humble and hard-working and never ask for any special favors. Both are always 'in it' for the right reasons – for their community and for the good of American Legion Baseball. "These men have been outstanding leaders long before any involvement with American Legion Baseball, but The American Legion has been the beneficiary of their leadership for over a decade. What makes them very deserving of this honor is their vision and their conviction to make The American Legion World Series a pinnacle event for every player, every coach, every parent at the end of a long season." Shelby Mayor Stan Anthony responded to the news with these words: "Those of us here in Shelby and Cleveland County are acutely aware of Eddie's and Jim's outstanding leadership and consistent commitment to The American Legion World Series. Working quietly and tirelessly, Eddie and Jim never promote their work or expect the spotlight to be on themselves. They are true humble servants to our community.
