Hopewell Valley Central High School

Athletic Hall of Fame

The Hopewell Valley Central High School Hall of Fame Committee is a not-for-profit organization formed and operated by volunteers interested in the local athletic community. The Committee's primary objective is to recognize outstanding achievements of Hopewell Valley Central High School's athletes, coaches, athletic teams, and other contributors by inducting selected candidates into an Athletic Hall of Fame. The Committee's secondary objective is to use its activities and tax deductible contributions from the public as means to raise net funds. The committee's long term objective is to selectively invest any such net funds into various youth athletic programs within the Hopewell Valley community.

Honor the Memory of Jim Byrnes
Jim Byrnes, retired educator, coach and mentor, was a founding member of the HVCHS Athletic Hall of Fame.  The current members of the committee would like to honor his memory through a memorial ad in our induction dinner program book.  If you are interested in participating as a patron for $15.00, with the money being donated to the Youth Enrichment Program in his name, please contact Annette at (215)428-2376 or by e-mail at HoValHallofFame@yahoo.com.

The Hall of Fame Committee meets once a month at the high school. Those who would like further information on becoming more involved in this endeavor should e-mail HoValHallofFame@yahoo.com.
