LP Hall of Fame Committee seeking nominations

LAKE PLACID — The Lake Placid Hall of Fame Committee is seeking nominations for its 2025 class of inductees. The deadline to submit nominations is Aug. 1, with the official induction ceremony scheduled for Nov. 5, at Roamer’s Cafe in the Olympic Center.

Since its founding in 1983, the Hall of Fame has honored over 130 distinguished individuals, including the 1948 U.S. four-man bobsled team and the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team. Each inductee is celebrated during a formal induction ceremony and awarded a commemorative plaque. Their achievements are permanently showcased through a digital kiosk proudly featured in the Hall of Fame, located in the Conference Center at the Olympic Center in Lake Placid.

Nominees must have a strong connection to the Olympic region, including Essex, Clinton and Franklin Counties, through residency or meaningful contributions. Candidates are recognized for elevating the region through achievements in sports, cultural efforts or civic leadership that enrich the area’s heritage and quality of life.

All nominations must include a summary of the nominee’s accomplishments and their relevance to the Hall of Fame’s mission. Previously submitted nominations are still on file and will be considered. Residents can send nominations electronically to museum@orda.org or by mail: Lake Placid Hall of Fame Committee c/o Courtney Bastian 2634 Main Street Lake Placid, NY 12946.
