HALL OF FAME WEEKEND ----------------------------------------------------------------
BB HALL OF FAME Announcement
--------------------------------------------------------
The BB Hall of Fame started in 2009 and the plan is to elect 3 past BB's per year. We're behind and need to induct 9 members this year.
There were 14 current BB's who voted. As expected, voting was very close and the candidates were extremely worthy.
All six candidates received at least two first place votes, and everyone was left off at least two ballots... so there was a variety of opinion.
The leading vote-getter was KELSEY SMITH. It was very close for 2nd thru 6th. Also top 3 was JACQUE TAYLOR and NICOLE MENDOZA.
The 3rd Hall of Fame class will be KELSEY, NICOLE, and JACQUE! CONGRATULATIONS!! All 6 girls will be deservedly inducted, so
the 4th Hall of Fame class will be KIM CROUCH, AMANDA MORENO, and CAITLIN CHOCK. Once again, CONGRATULATIONS!!
We will have another vote in June for the 5th Hall of Fame class. Small hint: there'll be plenty of Ponderosa and Davis girls on that ballot.
Sometime in late July or early August, we'll have a major get-together with all BB's invited and all 15 BB HOF girls invited.
