We had great time last Monday night at Nightown.
It was a beautiful evening to be out on the patio, doing what the Press Club of Cleveland does best: Party. Dick Feagler, Leon Bibb, Michael Heaton, Regina Brett, Michael D. Roberts and Neil Zurcher were among familiar faces at the Press Club’s 2nd Annual Hall of Fame Reunion Party.
The guest list was a who’s who of Cleveland media with legendary names. Feagler took the podium and regaled us with anecdotes about his career and poked good-natured fun at some of his fellow Press Club Hall of Famers.
The touching moment of the evening came with the announcement by Press Club President Ed Byers that the Press Club of Cleveland is creating The Chuck Heaton Award. Michael Heaton, the Plain Dealer’s “Minister of Culture” took the podium, telling the crowd how deeply moved and honored his family is with the award named after his late father. Michael said the entire family is planning to be on hand at the Hall of Fame induction dinner in November at LaCentre to help present the frst Chuck Heaton Award.
Chairman of the event at Nighttown was Bruce Hennes and co-chair was John Betchkal. Pictures of the event can be seen at http://picasaweb.google.com/bhennes/PressClubHallOfFameEventAtNighttownJune22008
