Williamsport Crosscutters News Release


The Williamsport Crosscutters have announced their 4th Annual Hot Stove Dinner & Auction with the Phillies will be held on Tuesday, January 12 at the Genetti Hotel in Williamsport.

A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit the Susquehanna Health Foundation.

Special guests from the Phillies and the world of sports are expected to be announced throughout the month of December. Fans are invited to check crosscutters.com for updates as they are announced.

Past guests have included Phillies players Kyle Kendrick, Chris Coste, Ryan Madsen, and J.A. Happ along with former Phillie great Dick Allen and late Phillies broadcaster Harry Kalas who was a special guest for each of the last three events.

The evening, presented in part by Professional Petroleum, Woodlands Bank, WRAK and the Williamsport Sun-Gazette, will consist of dinner, an entertainment portion, featuring interviews and question and answer segments with many of the special guests, plus Chinese and live auctions of Phillies & other sports memorabilia by T&S Auction Company.

One of the event highlights is announcement of the latest inductee to the Bowman Field Hall of Fame.

The Hall of Fame was started in 1989 by the Bowman Field Commission and the Williamsport Bills as a way to honor those who were influential and important to the history of Bowman Field and professional baseball in Williamsport.

The Bowman Field Hall of Fame was dormant since 1991, and was revived by the Crosscutters at the 2009 Hot Stove Banquet with the induction of the legendary Tommy Richardson.

The latest inductee is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

The dinner and entertainment portion of the event will begin promptly at 6:30 PM, preceded by an hour of mingling, fun and games with Boomer and the Phillie Phanatic, plus the start of the Chinese auction. Free autographs will be available for attendees at the close of event.

Tickets are limited and the event has been a sell-out every year.

Fans are encouraged to get their tickets now by calling the Cutters offices at (570) 326-3389 or ordering online at www.crosscutters.com.
