So far, we've had the suggestion for the Golf Outing to be renamed to something of the effect of "The Annual
Pete Smolleck Cleveland Darter Club Golf Outing", or the "The Cleveland Darter Club Annual Pete Smolleck
Golf Outing", etc.
Pete and I had discussed renaming it to the "Herb Rhoades..." Outing, since it was Herb's idea,
and I worked with Herb the first three years.
I was considering the "Pete Smolleck Memorial Monday League", but we already have the "Gus Topping
Memorial Summer League", thanks to Pete. And we have difficulty getting that moniker on everything -
so I'm a little reluctant for this particular idea.
But Pat suggests the "Pete Smolleck Distinguished Darter Award" and the recipients be invited to dinner
at the Golf Outing - perhaps we could work in a roast or something for the presentation. Anyway, I think
that's probably the most fitting, so far. His name will be permanently on plaques and publications, there
will be an event, Pete was as close to Dist. Darter as any committee.... perhaps moreso. And, he certainly
epitomizes the award itself.
I need to get something up in the forum for this stuff. We're inundated with calls and email.
Your thoughts on memorial "stuff" are encouraged.
