The Prince Albert Minor Softball Association also paid a special thanks to ‘The Voice of Rotary Field’ to end the season. Maury Primeau was recognized for his commitment to the Aces and Astros programs.

A post on the PAMSA social media page said, “Maury is one of the first guys to get to the diamond and always makes sure the scoreboards and sound systems are operating. I’m not sure how our tournaments would operate without him. He’s one of the few who can announce, run the scoreboard and scorekeep all at the sime time. He loves ball just as much as the players! In the off season you can find him in the rink. Thanks for everything you do Maury.”
