The El Paso boxing Hall of Fame/ El Paso Boxing Martial Arts Hall of Fame was founded in 1993 by coach Thomas W. McKay. McKay served as the Hall's first president for four years and then retired Colonel Mack Boone continued to excel as President bringing in the most monies for the Candlelighters. The 501 C3 has provided tens of thousands of dollars to the 'Candlelighters', a group that suppports children with cancer.
Mckay came down with serious cancer in 1996 and the Hall continued uintil a couple of years ago when unfortunately, IRS reports were not submitted. Because of that neglect, McKay, still fighting cancer, will hopefully bring the event back in 2012.
McKay plans to have a website up sometime in March of 2012 and will list all the inductee's and highlights of their careers.
Thanks for asking
