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.

Will the SSHF be having an induction dinner and ceremony for the Induction Class of 2021 at some time in the future?

Hi Bryan, Our hope is to have an in-person induction dinner and ceremony for the 2021 Induction Class when it is safe and appropriate to do so. As of this writing, a date for that to take place has not been set. Thank you for your interest.
