Missing Cherry Hill East Hall Of Fame Inductee Will Have Seat Reserved
This is the seventh year that Cherry Hill East has inducted former student athletes and coaches into its Hall of Fame.
CHERRY HILL, NJ – For the seventh time in as many years, Cherry Hill East will induct athletes and coaches into its Hall of Fame. But for the first time, a chosen inductee could not be found.
The Cherry Hill East Hall of Fame committee has been unable to find class of 1971 standout Rick Fisher.
"In the seven years we’ve been doing this, [he’s] the only honoree that we have not been able to contact," Fred Belchikoff, a member of the selection committee, told Patch.

Fisher excelled at track, Belchikoff said. Regardless of his attendance, the committee will keep a seat reserved for Fisher, just in case he is located before this year’s induction ceremony on Nov. 26.
Anyone who knows Fisher or how to get in touch with him is urged to email Belchikoff at fred.belchikoff@gmail.com or call him at 609-472-8093, leaving a message if necessary.
