Members who will be inducted into the second class of the Alabama Sports and Adventure Hall of Fame next month mingled among each other Tuesday night at the Dothan Country
Dothan’s Mike Schmitz, who created the hall of fame last year to honor local men and women who have dedicated their lives to their families and their communities while also having time to live a healthy lifestyle through sports and adventure, made the rounds talking to those present.“I know folks in the Wiregrass who are every day, ordinary people who do extraordinary things,” Schmitz told the crowd.
Culbreath has run a Yoshukai school for 45 years in addition to teaching classes as part of the Dothan Department of Leisure Services athletics program. The father has been the main trainer of his children during their boxing careers, but he now is going to be more there for support. “I mean, I’m overwhelmed,” Patel said of being among the inductees. “The main thing to me is serving the community and showing the world what adventure is about. How I got involved in falconry is I watched a special on PBS and got intrigued about it.”
