The Butte Sports Hall of Fame public forum will be held at 6 p.m. Monday at the McQueen Club.

This forum will give the public the chance to speak on behalf of nominees for the Butte Sports Hall of Fame Class of 2026, which will be announced in February. The induction ceremonies will be held July 24-25 at the Butte Civic Center.

Each speaker will be asked to limit his or her talk to 3 minutes per candidate. The Hall of Fame will also accept new nominations, though it will ask for documentation to back it up.

Any candidate nominated in the past is still nominated for this time around.

Selection committee members are Jim Street, Jason Alexander, Dave Dunmire, Michele Shea, Gina Evans, Cathy Tutty, Ray Jay Johnson, Matt Vincent, Krystin Mengon Lee, Jaison Carriger, Meg Muprhy and Scott Mansanti.

Candidates in the veteran and contributor categories will be voted on by members of the Butte Sports Hall of Fame. The ballots were sent out last week and are due back by Feb. 9.

Any Hall of Famers who did not receive a ballot should contact Bill Foley, Butte Sports Hall of Fame executive director, at (406) 491-3022 or foles74@gmail.com.
