Nearly 400 people attended the Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame’s annual summer picnic Monday at the Lakewood Rod & Gun club as dozens of local athletes were honored. Above, Bill and Lisa Catania, owners of Stateline Speedway in Busti, chat with Dr. Charles Sinatra on the patio at the Lakewood Rod & Gun Club in advance of the picnic. The Catanias were the recipient of the Dr. Charles Sinatra Legacy Award, which is presented annually to an unsung county sports hero. Sinatra is also director emeritus of the CSHOF. Below left, a pair of Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame inductees Bill Rollinger (Class of 1996) and Bill Radak (Class of 1997) chat on the patio at the Lakewood Rod & Gun Club during the picnic.
