The Induction Dinner

This dinner and ceremony was 1^st class all the way! (and for $75, it better be) the MC for the evening was John  Hawkins from Miller ind. The night opened with the flag march. These flags represent all the countries that are represented in the Hall of fame. Then came the inductees with their escorts.   

They marched to a staging area where they sat until the individual inductee was called up to the stage.

Once the inductee made it on stage, his / her biography was read along with accomplishments, training, family and future plans. At the same time, he is officially inducted, his picture is unveiled.

the inductee makes a thank you speach.

once all the inductees have been inducted there escorts are called back on stage and they are officially introduced as �The class of 2006� BTW, the escorts are chosen by the inductee and does no have to be their spouse. The past inductees are then invited to come up and shake hands with the new class and congratulate them followed by all of the audience.
