Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams will be honored May 9 at the 23rd annual Doug Jirschele Memorial Sports Award Banquet.

The banquet will be held May 9 at Clintonville Lanes and Banquet Hall, 250 County Road I. Cocktails will be served at 6 p.m., with dinner catered by Mathew’s Supper Club at 7 p.m. and a program at 8 p.m.

Adams will receive the Doug Jirschele Sports Award. Other award recipients will be Katie (Strelow) Ripley, Clintonville High School Class of 1998, Paul Halverson, Class of 1986, and Kean Kasper, Class of 1979.

The Forgotten Person Award will also be presented to an individual who has made contributions to sports in the Clintonville area but has not always received the proper recognition.

Michael Leckrone, director of the University of Wisconsin marching band, will be the guest speaker.

Paul Kasprzak, former WTCH/WOWN sports reporter and announcer, will be the master of ceremonies.

The banquet is sponsored by the Clintonville American Legion Post 63 to benefit the Clintonville American Legion baseball team and other youth baseball activities.

Last year’s event drew about 400 people.
