Rutherford Weekly

Thursday, November 10-November 16, 2022 www.rutherfordweekly.com 828-248-1408 Rutherford Weekly - Page 7 The Rutherford County Sports Hall of Fame (RCSHOF) presented by Hardin's Drug, unveiled their new website October 31. The updated site, www. rcshof.org, is the culmination of a six-month process that not only puts information at people's fi ngertips, but also streamlines the nomination process of new inductees. "We fi gured that if we were going to be a fi rst-class organization, we needed a fi rst-class website and we certainly have that now," RCSHOF co-chairman Jody Wright said. Strive Marketing of Forest City designed the new website which features pictures and profi les of all the inductees, from the inaugural class of 2017 to the most recent class of 2022. Video footage of select athletes is also available. Visitors to the site can search for a specifi c athlete by name, induction year or by sport. "We wanted to make it easy for people to know who our inductees are," Wright said. "It also helps to avoid duplicate nominations." "We wanted to create a website that could retell and preserve the history of athletes here in Rutherford County," Strive Marketing LLC Founder Mia Chapman added. "Another goal we and the Board had was to make a site that was easily searchable where people could quickly fi nd information on a certain athlete. There are a lot of features on the site that make information easily accessible." The website also features information on the annual T. Max Champion Memorial Golf Tournament and scholarship opportunities, along with links to the RCSHOF social media pages. One of the most important features is that visitors can easily nominate a deserving athlete online. Under the "Nominate An Athlete" tab, visitors can read eligibility requirements as well as complete the nomination process entirely online if they wish. Hardcopy nominations are still welcome. Simply print out and mail a completed form to PO Box 1815 Forest City NC, 28043. Completed forms can also be dropped off at the Callison Recreation Center in Forest City. Nominations for the 2023 class are now open and will be accepted through December 31, 2022. *The Rutherford County Sports Hall of Fame was founded in 2017 with a mission of: "Providing a means to recognize the extraordinary efforts and achievements of athletes, coaches, teams and contributors throughout Rutherford County". e hospice you choose makes a diff erence.
