Inductees
to the Pullman Walk of Fame will be honored during the 29th annual National
Lentil Festival at 10 a.m. Saturday at the corner of Kamiaken and Main streets.
The
Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the
Pullman community in a significant way, promoted goodwill, improved the quality
of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their
contributions. This year’s inductees bring the number of commemorative granite
plaques to 105.
Each
plaque has the names of these individuals inscribed and has been installed in
the sidewalks of downtown Pullman. Brochures listing all inductees are
available at the Pullman Chamber of Commerce office. Donations are always
accepted for the Walk of Fame program.
This
year’s inductees include Dan Maher, host of the “Inland Folk” public radio show
for more than 30 years; Richard (Dick) Fry, former WSU sports information
director and historian; Mike and Sue Hinz, strong supporters for Pullman’s
Fourth of July celebration to track and field at Pullman High School, and Lt.
Col. Robert and Miriam Rehwaldt, volunteers for many organizations.
