Baseball player Tobi Stoner will be the grand marshal of Garrett County's 44th annual Autumn Glory Festival Grand Feature Parade scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 15. The parade is set to begin at 1 p.m.
A native of Garrett County, Stoner attended Southern High School, where he was a first-team, all-area infielder and pitcher. During his tenure at SHS, the Rams won back-to-back area titles and had a 43-4 record in Stoner's last two seasons. He played at Garrett College before attending Davis and Elkins College (W.Va.). There he was named Male Athlete of the Year in 2006.
That same year, Stoner was drafted by the New York Mets in the 16th round and played for the Mets' double-A affiliate in Binghamton, N.Y., and its triple-A team in Buffalo, N.Y. Stoner was called up to the New York Mets in 2009. He is currently playing in the triple-A division.
Stoner will be holding a Meet and Greet at 11 a.m. during the Autumn Glory Craft and Gift Sale at the exhibit hall at the Garrett County Fairgrounds, Sunday, Oct. 16.
The Autumn Glory Craft and Gift Sale is presented by the Garrett County Chamber of Commerce and sponsored by Susquehanna Bank. The 44th annual Autumn Glory Festival commemorative posters will also be available for purchase that day at the exhibit hall for $10 each.
The Autumn Glory Festival will run from Oct. 12 through 16 in Garrett County with a kick-off reception at Wisp Resort and two large parades, concerts, an Oktoberfest celebration, the Maryland State Banjo, Mandolin, and Fiddle championships, art exhibits, the Western Maryland Tournament of Bands, and antique and craft shows, as well as other events and amusements.
