FLS pays tribute to Paul Akers

The FLS ran a nice editorial today recognizing the role the late Paul Akers played in bringing professional baseball to Fredericksburg. Akers, formerly the FLS’ editorial page editor, wrote a series of editorials about the benefits Minor League Baseball has for a community. Those editorials helped generate momentum that will culminate in the Fredericksburg Nationals opening play at the new stadium near the Fredericksburg Expo Center in April.
