A plaque at Traynham Park, dedicated December 16, 1995, and shown at right, includes this statement:
| Gary Traynham has made a second career out of his devotion to the youth and sports activities of this community. From many years as sports editor of the local newspaper, he has been a tireless volunteer for many sports organizations in town by serving in a wide variety of roles from coach to league president. The enthusiasm with which he approached these roles has been contagious to all. |
One of the city councilmembers signing the dedication is Jack Slaven, after whom Jack Slaven Park is named.
