I received the following announcement by email:
THE ALBUQUERQUE HISTORICAL SOCIETY ANNOUNCES ITS SEPTEMBER PROGRAM. . .
NEW MEXICO HALL OF PRIDE & HONOR...High school sports tell 100 years of history
Decades old championship footballs, basketballs & trophies, photographs of schools & teams pre-WW I, band and cheerleader uniforms, the evolution of the athletic letter jacket, ..and much more.
A "hidden treasure" of local and state history is contained in the 7,000 sq. ft. Hall of Pride and Honor at the NM Activities Association (NMAA) building. Over 120 NM high schools feature their sports memorabilia in glass display cases.
The vision for the Hall, which opened in 1992, was cast by former NMAA Director Dan Salzwedel who says "if you forget the past, you forsake the future". The Hall also includes the Halls of Fame for coaches, officials, & NMAA leaders.
Preceding the tour, our speaker is Dr. Dan Salzwedel, a long time NM resident, educator, and NMAA Director from 1980 - 2004. He will explain how the Hall was started and how historic artifacts from schools are preserved.
