Milt Dunnell Day

 

Patrick

Saturday June the 10th was a very special day for us. We had the privilege of meeting one of the best sports writers of all time, Milt Dunnell! He turned 100 on December 24th 2005. One diamond at Bond Park in North York was named after him. I was one of four to help out with the ceremony. There were over 100 people listening to speeches from many people. After the speeches

 

 

we got our photos taken with Mr. Dunnell. He was a really nice guy. Before the game I got autographs from Brian Williams and Blue Jays C.E.O. Paul Godfrey. The exhibition game against the home team North York Blues was very fun to play and we won. It was really nice to meet Mr. Dunnell, and the next day there was an article about it in the Toronto Star.
