Shelby Parks’ Sports Complex Dedicated
The completion of the Shelby City Park Recreation and Sports Complex, Phase One, was dedicated on Friday, June 17.  Charlie Holtzclaw, Shelby Parks and Recreation Director, began the program and introduced the guest speakers. Comments from the speakers made during the dedication included: “It’s been a long time coming . . . a great achievement . . . a great partnership . . . a team effort . . . the park exists for you . . . volunteers make the difference. . .  and it’s part of our ongoing efforts to restore and refresh the City of Shelby!” The Royster family’s gift of 50 acres made it all possible and they were repeatedly thanked. After the speeches, a collection of softball, tee-ball, and baseball players (shown here) were part of the “First Pitch Ceremony”.
