This class was selected in 2020, however their induction was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They will be officially enshrined at such a time that is appropriate and allows for safe communal gathering while following all provincial health guidelines. The SSHF Board has determined that there will not be an induction in 2021.
We look forward to announcing an induction date when the above parameters are met.

Just win baby!
