Our 2018 Ring Awards Holiday Event was a success honoring those in the boxing sport who hail locally from the New York area as well as some of the biggest stars in todays ring. Thank You to outgoing President Jack Hirsch for a fine job, who along with Vice President Henry Hascup and ex-Pres. Bob Duffy oversaw the dinner and its magnificent turnout-once again.
We are Proud to announce that Ring 8 has made a generous donation to the IBF Toys for Children Drive in New Jersey for this Holiday Season.
I want to Thank the Ring 8 Broad of Directors for electing me the new President of Ring 8. The new Vice President will be Frank Pena. Frank is leader in the New York State amateur boxing scene. Together we feel confident that with hard work and with the aide of the Board of Directors , Ring 8 will continue to be successful as it has been for many years.
