Athletic Hall of Fame
Shenandoah Valley Dedicates its Sports Hall of Fame in Memory of Dr. Stanley Rakowsky
Prior to the start of the memorial walk to honor the late Dr. Stanley Rakowsky, members of his family and employees of the Shenandoah Valley School District gathered to formally dedicate the Shenandoah Valley Athletic Hall of Fame located in the lobby outside the high school gymnasium. The Sports Hall of Fame emerged from an idea conceived by Dr. Rakowsky to formally recognize the most outstanding athletes to have ever played or coached a Blue Devil team.
