Wausau, WIS – The Wisconsin Woodchucks are happy to announce that the Central Wisconsin Baseball Hall of Fame will hold its annual banquet and induction ceremony this summer at Athletic Park.  A formal date and time line will be announced in April. Formerly, the Central Wisconsin Baseball Hall of Fame banquet and induction ceremony was held in January, but with the addition of a new Neighborhood park adjacent to Athletic Park the event will have an exciting and appropriate facility for honoring our local baseball heroes where it all happened.

Details regarding the event, nominations, ballots, and voting will be released in the coming months.
