I am honored and excited to be a part of this event in Oregon on Saturday.
Three local media members with nearly 100 combined years of covering high school sports will be the presenters for the “Those Were The Days” program at the Oregon Depot.
The program will begin at 10 a.m. Nov. 30 at 400 Collins St., Oregon.
Joining me will be Brian Weidman and Andy Colbert. Brian Weidman, who grew up nearby in Amboy, is a well-known fixture in the Sauk Valley area for decades as a sports writer.
Unlike myself and Weidman who made careers in the business, Andy Colbert is a part-timer, covering games for a variety of newspapers and also writing sports columns.
We will share their experiences in the area of the local high school sports scene, noting the myriad changes they have observed over the years.
