WALTER LAWRENCE MEMORIAL AWARD |
 |
It is just strictly a baseball club where the game of baseball is perpetuated for the entire twelve months.
It brings together all baseball fans. We don't care if they are Red Sox fans or Dodger fans. As long as they
like baseball, they belong in the Club.
--Walter Lawrence when asked about the World Series Club
Walt Lawrence was just such a dynamic individual. Did he ever love baseball.
You could call him anytime and he'd go to a game with you. Walter Lawrence was one of those guys
who cared a lot about the Club. He wanted things to be just right. He served on every
committee. His contributions were noteworthy over an extended number of years.
--Former World Series Club President Dick Thurston
The Walter Lawrence Memorial Award is designed to recognize personal achievement within the World Series Club of
Hartford County. This award is named in honor of Walter Lawrence, who served two terms as Club President and
unselfishly gave to the Club in order for it to be what it is today. This award is presented at the final
banquet of each year to a member who exhibits outstanding performance on behalf of the Club.
