The Town of Tazewell Industrial Economic Development
Authority in cooperation with the Billy Wagner Park Committee is
pursuing funding to construct a bronze statue and tribute park
in honor of local legend Billy Wagner’s 2025 induction into
the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Community leaders in Tazewell,
Virginia feel it is essential to celebrate this generational talent. Billy is
the first Southwest Virginian and Division III athlete to be recognized in
Cooperstown. Billy represents the grit and work ethic that pulses
through all Southwest Virginians. As Billy rises to be part of the
approximately 1% of professional baseballers to earn a plaque, he will
eternally demonstrate how meager beginnings can be the foundation to
an impactful career.

You are invited to become a part of Billy Wagner Park by
purchasing a brick paver that will be showcased on Main Street Tazewell VA in
the future Billy Wagner Park. Each engraved brick will become a
permanent part of this treasured space. Your support, whether as an individual,
family, business, or organization, is critical for our group to achieve our
fundraising goals!
