Included in the ceremonies was the National Anthem beautifully sung by Miss Spanbauer followed by recognition of town officials and the awards ceremony. One of the highlights was the dedication of Diamond 1 in honor of John McGowan, who was one of the founders of Grand Island Little League. Todd Callen was emcee for the event.
