Sounds like a good night in CR

The Cedar Rapids Kernels had their Hot Stove Banquet on January 18. It reads like they had some fun.

Fans are still raving about the Cedar Rapids Kernels 11th Annual Hot Stove Banquet held Thursday, January 18th at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Cedar Rapids.

The banquet, which featured Angels Manager Mike Scioscia as the guest speaker, drew 375 people and raised over $10,000 for the Kernels Foundation via a silent and live auctions, raffles and ticket proceeds.

Four individuals were enshrined into the Cedar Rapids Baseball Hall of Fame at the banquet. They are Paul O’Neill, Ron Plaza, Don ‘Bucky’ Buchheister and Harold ‘Pinky’ Primrose. Those four will be honored in pre-game ceremonies at a Kernels home game this season.


Here's a picture from the site (and the event) of Kernels radio announcer John Rodgers and Scioscia.


At least, I hope it's Scioscia. That picture is kind of small.
