North Carolina Table Tennis Hall of Fame

Posted on

The North Carolina Table Tennis Hall of Fame will be inducting its first class on Saturday, Aug.7 in Raleigh, NC.

We want to invite all table tennis fans who want to honor our inductees to join us at a banquet at Seasons 52 Restaurant at 5PM to celebrate the accomplishments of Norm Kilpatrick, Bowie Martin, Sr., Jim McQueen, Danny Hill, Mike Babuin and Brian Pace.

The cost is $71 per person and includes dinner.  It also allows us to book the restaurant and to have the use of its facilities. You can pay via PayPal at timconnelly1770@yahoo.com or send checks to 7011 B Cape Harbor Drive, Wilmington, NC 28411

For Questions call Tim Connelly at 910-523-9313.  Because we only have 50 seats available, it is essential that we receive advance payments.

There will be stories galore and as we all know, table tennis people are the best anywhere! This will be a great evening for learning something about the history of NC Table Tennis and some of the people who were the most important. We look forward to seeing you!
