The Kossuth County Racing Hall of Fame recently announced its 2016 class of inductees. This year’s class features eight individuals that achieved great success in the sport.

Drivers inducted this summer include Denny Anderson, who earned his 100th IMCA modified feature win at Algona several year ago, plus Jon Hiscocks, the late Jack McCorkell and the late Dale Wilhite.

Bill Holcomb and his brother the late Ken Holcomb, were car owners and supporters of racing at the Kossuth County track, while Dean & Nancy Schroeder will be recognized for their many years of providing automotive parts, fuel and supplies here. Dean also competed as a driver for several years in Algona.

The committee, with the help of the living members of the Kossuth Racing Hall of Fame, selected the eight inductees for 2016. Candidates not selected will be considered for future inductions.

The induction ceremony will take place August 6th during the annual Kossuth County Fair.

More details about the Hall of Fame and the induction ceremony will be released when they are available to www.KossuthMuseum.com.
