Sea Dogs Dedicate Skybox to Bill Troubh
Portland, Maine- The Portland Sea Dogs honored the life of Bill Troubh, who passed away on November 8th, 2013, as part of the Opening Ceremonies at Hadlock Field on Thursday night. The Sea Dogs dedicated a Hadlock Field Skybox in his honor and established the "William Troubh Community Service Award."
Troubh was a lifelong resident of the city of Portland who dedicated his life to making Portland a great place to live and work. He served multiple terms on the Portland City Council and was Mayor of the city in 1974 and 1975 and again in 1983 and 1984. Troubh was instrumental in bringing the Portland Sea Dogs to the city in 1994. He also played a major role in the development of the Portland Waterfront, Cumberland County Civic Center and the Portland Ice Arena. His contributions will be enjoyed by residents and visitors of the city for generations to come.
Troubh was a lifelong baseball fan. He stayed involved after his key role in helping to bring the Sea Dogs to Portland, serving as the teams' legal counsel and served a six year term as President of the Eastern League from 1997 through 2002. On most summer nights Troubh could be found here at Hadlock Field enjoying a Sea Dogs game with family and friends. He was inducted into the Portland Sea Dogs Hall of Fame in 2010.
"While my father is described as the founder of the Sea Dogs, he was also the first to say that the team would not be here had it not been for the heroic efforts of Bill Troubh," said Sea Dogs chairman Bill Burke. "Bill was a great man, a valued advisor and a cherished friend. We miss him terribly but are pleased for the opportunity to honor his memory on a day that was always circled on his calendar, the home opener at Hadlock Field."
Troubh's wife Nancy along with their children, grandchildren, and friends were in attendance Thursday as the Sea Dogs unveiled the "Troubh" skybox. A replica Sea Dogs jersey with Troubh's name and the number 13 are displayed on the outside of the box. While a plaque inside the box honors Troubh's contributions.
Most of the Hadlock Field skyboxes are named after Red Sox legends such as Carlton Fisk, Carl Yastrzemski, and Ted Williams. In 2001, the Sea Dogs dedicated a skybox to Bob Ganley, long-time Portland City Manager, who along with Troubh played an instrumental role in getting the Sea Dogs to Portland.
In addition, the Sea Dogs announced the formation of the "William Troubh Community Service Award". The award will recognize a local citizen that is making a positive impact within the city of Portland. It may be a public employee or private citizen that through their efforts makes Portland a great city to live and/or work in. The nominations for the award will open annually in February starting in 2015 and the winner will be recognized prior to a Sea Dogs home game during the season.
Troubh's grandchildren threw-out the ceremonial first-pitch to get the season started at Hadlock Field.
The Sea Dogs continue their opening homestand on Friday night at 6:00 PM against the New Britain Rock Cats.
Tickets are available for all 2014 home games. Tickets can be purchased by calling the Sea Dogs Ticket Office at 207-879-9500 or online at www.seadogs.com. Book your nine inning vacation today!
