We need a place to showcase Sudburian achievements

When Sudbury’s athletes win Olympic gold, or a Lively boy brings Sudbury the Stanley Cup, it makes me wish we had a place in Sudbury that exhibits the triumphant victories of these individuals.

When Sudbury’s athletes win Olympic gold, or a Lively boy brings Sudbury the Stanley Cup, it makes me wish we had a place in Sudbury that exhibits the triumphant victories of these individuals.

Perhaps in the Sudbury Arena, or somewhere, we could have a Sudbury Walk Of Fame. And perhaps not just athletes alone, but entertainers such as the host of Jeopardy, Alex Trebek, home town singers like Michelle Wright, and those who become famous for other reasons altogether.

It would be great to see all these Sudbuarian achievements in one place. A place kids can come to and say, “Maybe I could be one of those, too.”

I hope my idea can turn into a Sudbury project.
