The Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame, Inc., announced Tuesday the 38th Hall of Fame Induction Banquet, in the Lambeau Field Atrium Saturday, July 19, has been sold out. This year’s banquet features the enshrinement of former nose tackle Gilbert Brown (top left photo), center Frank Winters (right photo) and video director Al Treml. This year’s presenters are Santana Dotson (to present Brown), Brett Favre (Winters) and Bart Starr (Treml).
Larry McCarren, game analyst on the Packers Radio Network and sports director at WFRV-TV in Green Bay, will serve as emcee for the event. A 1992 Packers Hall of Fame inductee, McCarren was an iron man at center for the Packers for 12 seasons (1973–84). He played in 162 consecutive games — the fourth-longest streak in team history — helping him earn the nickname “Rock.” He was voted to the Pro Bowl in 1982 and 1983.
In his second career, McCarren has been sports director at WFRV-TV since 1988 and a member of the Packers’ radio team since 1995. He has been voted Wisconsin Sportscaster of the Year in 1994, 1996 and 2002 by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association. McCarren has been a frequent master of ceremonies for the enshrinement banquet over the past decade.
In addition to the induction of Brown, Winters and Treml, the Hall of Fame formally will recognize this year’s Fan honoree, Richard “Ike” Eisenhauer.
The Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame, Inc., Golf Classic, at The Bull in Sheboygan Falls Monday, July 14, also is sold out.
