Dragon Hall of Fame ceremony returns to Hanna Center in May

Sonoma Valley High School’s Dragon Hall of Fame committee will hold its 2013 induction ceremony for the second consecutive year at the Hanna Boys Center’s impressive new facility on its Arnold Drive campus.

The sixth annual Dragon Hall of Fame event takes place Saturday, May 11, and will honor one coach and one business with special awards, as well as seven individual athletes and one team that won back-to-back titles.

Included in Sonoma’s 2013 Hall of Fame class are former coach Pam Adams accepting the D.A. Pfeiffer Coaches Award, and Broadway Market receiving the Mulas Family Recognition Award, which is named for the late Schellville fire chief and dairy farmer, Mitch Mulas, and his family.

The award honors people, families or businesses who have contributed time and/or resources to ensure that the Valley’s students, athletes and coaches have the additional support necessary to have successful seasons and experiences.

The 2013 Dragon Hall of Fame athletic individual inductees are Jim Sweet for the 1950s; Bruce Bromley and Bill Marioni for the 1960s; Kevin Woods for the 1970s; Marnett Smalley and Brad Svennungsen for the 1980s; and Dan Littlefield for the 1990s.
