Van Miller Hometown Hero Scholarship Golf Tournament is looking for golfers and Bills fans alike

The event is planned and the fix is in for a day spent golfing and reminiscing with the longest-running broadcaster with one team, in sportscasting history. Van Miller will be circulating and sharing many stories about the Dunkirk Marauders, Buffalo Braves, Buffalo Bisons, War Memorial Stadium and Western New York's Buffalo Bills. He also has stories about caddying at Shorewood Country Club, Chautauqua County Fairgrounds when German prisoners of war resided there, working at WDOE, WBEN-4, and broadcasting neighborhood ball games with or without any actual players or games on any device that could be a microphone. Miller's legendary voice has been heard in more than 2,500 sports events, and he never missed a single game he was scheduled to cover. It is with that dedication that Miller wishes to sponsor the scholarships that bear his name.

Miller was born 85 years ago in Dunkirk. He has never forgotten his roots and with his personal and financial help, two deserving Dunkirk High seniors will be awarded a scholarship to the college of their choice for the foreseeable future.

Miller's accomplishments are many. He is enshrined in five sports halls of fame, including Canton and Chautauqua. In Canton, his voice, mike, headset and spotting boards are on display for all football fans to view. His most famous phrase is from the Houston versus Buffalo comeback game, where he is heard to say, "It's pandemonium. It's FANDEMONIUM. Do you believe it?"

Through all of his accomplishments, it is still his hometown where he seeks his approval.

As he said in an interview about the tournament and scholarships, "There is nothing like coming home," he said. "I'm in five halls of fame and this is the biggest thing that's ever happened to me. It's the greatest thing that has ever happened to me and I mean that sincerely."

So come and join us at Shorewood Country Club for a great event sponsored by Lake Shore Savings and Van Miller. To register for golf, to donate prizes or to share dinner with us, contact Lake Shore Savings at 366-4070 option number 4, extension 1256 and ask for Heide Karen or email van@lakeshoresavings.com.
