Where Were You in 1957?

Posted by Mike Ruthenberg on Feb 03 2005 at 04:00PM PST in Spring 2016
Not many people who are involved with Clairemont Hilltoppers today were even born in 1957, but that was the year that Little League play began at what is now known as Cadman Park. In 2006 we will be celebrating the 50th season of Clairemont Hilltoppers Little League, and we're planning a party to last the whole year. We want everyone who has ever been a player, a coach, an umpire, a board member, a sponsor or a fan of our league to participate in the celebration. Opening Day weekend will be March 4-5, 2006, with special ceremonies, an evening banquet and a Sunday picnic. Both present and former Hilltoppers will be taking part in all of these festivities, and we will continue to commemorate this special anniversary throughout the 2006 season. While it may seem like we're jumping the gun a little, we are very anxious to begin making contact with as many of our alumni as possible. A 50th Anniversary Committee is forming, and we invite your participation. We are also looking for any old programs, photos, scorebooks, banners or any other memorabilia that would mark the history of our league. We will simply scan or photograph these items and return any and all that you wish returned. Our greatest need right now is to get addresses, phone numbers and email adresses of as many former Hilltoppers as possible. Please contact either our 50th Anniversary Chairman Steve Conner or our League Information Officer Ken Cicalo if you can provide any of this contact info. We also desperately need financial assistance from sponsors large or small. If you or your company would be interested in being part in this once-in-a-lifetime Clairemont celebration, please download the handout at the bottom of this page or contact our officials listed below. Please bookmark this webpage and check back here often as we will continue to update this site with details of our plans as next year approaches.
