At the January 23rd BOE meeting, it was announced that the Pembroke Teachers' Federation proposal to name the softball field after legendary coach and retired PTF member Ron Funke was approved! The BOE approved our proposal at a meeting in December and officially announced the naming of the softball field! Ron was invited to the meeting to hear the special news. At a date to be determined, a special dedication ceremony will take place! It will be a very special event! Stay tuned for more details.
Special thanks to Matt Shay and former Pembroke AD Ryan Winchip for their assistance and research in collecting statistics from Ron's legendary coaching career!
Another special thanks to Mr. Calderon, the Pembroke BOE, and the Proposal Review Committee for supporting this proposal!
As a coach, PE Teacher, and Alumnus: Ron has instilled Pembroke Pride for decades!
