Portage la Prairie resident and PCI principal Gregg Waldvogel is to be inducted into the 2018 Softball Manitoba Hall of Fame. Waldvogel shares what it feels like.

"It's very rewarding," he explains. "I think I played Senior A for 35 years. So, just with looking at the other people who'd been in the Hall prior to myself, it's something you don't want to take lightly. It's certainly a reward for all your years of participation in the sport."

He notes the ceremony takes place in Brandon's Keystone Centre where inductees each have a chance to say a few words, along with teams who are also to be inducted. A commemorative plaque is awarded to each person along with mementos from their sport.

The 17th annual induction ceremony banquet will be held at the Keystone Centre, UTC Pavilion, 1175 18th Street, Brandon, Manitoba, on May 5.
