Sports Legends Co-Founder Tom Menasco Awarded Lifetime Achievement Award
Contra Costa Times – Two people were named Citizen of the Year, longtime resident Tom Menasco, accepting the title for lifetime achievement, and painting contractor Tom Hartrick for having the greatest impact on the city last year.
Menasco was one of the founders of Antioch Sports Legends, a portion of Antioch Historical Society’s museum that has been paying tribute to outstanding local athletes since fall 2007.
The former city employee has spent nearly all his life in Antioch, and over the past 48 years Menasco has volunteered for well over a dozen organizations from the Salvation Army Corps and Antioch Committee on Aging to the Antioch Youth Sports Complex and Kaiser Permanente’s medical center.
