Hugh Murray tribute night - February 4

 from Tony Riches

The Glen Cairn Men's Fastball League has reserved the party room at Local Heroes sports bar on Clyde Avenue (Merivale and Baseline, near the Queensway) in Nepean on Saturday February 4 from 7PM to close for a ballplayers gathering to celebrate Hugh Murray. The idea is for friends and teammates to reminisce and honour his memory with the approval and support of his family, some of which will be in attendance. At 8PM there will be a tribute, then a moment of silence and a toast. Also available will be a collection bowl so we can make a donation to the cancer society in Hugh's name.

This central location was chosen because Hugh also played in the Blackburn league as well as the GOFL, and their players are invited. As for the date, there are no NFL games and the NHL is on hiatus for its all star break.

Hugh was a longtime GCMFL member and absolute gentleman that spared actively and often for all teams that requested.
