The NFL’s celebration of the 50th
Super Bowl landed in the Central Cambria Gym on Friday, January 15th,
as the Red Devils’ honored alumnus Ron Kostelnik. The District was the
recipient of a commemorative engraved gold football in honor of Ron’s legendary
play with the Green Bay Packers in Super Bowls I and II.
A large contingency from the
Kostelnik family was present. Ron’s wife Peggy was presented the golden football in honor of Ron’s astounding
accomplishments. The Central Cambria Athletic Department retired Ron’s high
school jersey of #69, a standing ovation from the large crowd followed, in
honor of the Kostelnik family.
The school community also raised
money for the American Heart Association at the game, as Ron lost his life to a
heart attack. A special thanks to the Kostelnik family for traveling the far distances
to make this a memorable evening for Central Cambria Athletics.
A
HUGE Thank You to Mr. Randy Wilson, Mr. Steve Gironda, Ms. Deb
Yesenosky, Mr. John LaMark, and Mr Brian Dumm who made this event a wonderful
community event for CC!
