DR. KREMCHEK CONTINUES LONG-TIME SUPPORT OF MOELLER HIGH SCHOOL WITH DONATION TO THE SCHOOL’S BASEBALL TEAM
February 9, 2024
Dr. Tim Kremchek’s has continued his long-time support for Moeller High School with a $5,000 donation to the Crusader baseball team.
The funds will help pay for the team’s spring break trip to Florida.
“It’s all about giving back, and doing so on a sustained basis,” said Dr. Kremchek, who serves as Moeller’s medical director. “I didn’t go to Moeller, but my involvement with the school goes back decades, to when my dad became the school’s first team doctor. It is a great school, and I’m happy to do what I can to support all that they do.”
Dr. Edward Kremchek, an orthopaedic surgeon, became Moeller’s team physician in 1968 until he died in 1995. Dr. Kremchek worked with his father for two years and has been Moeller’s team physician ever since.
Moeller’s baseball stadium is named for the Kremchek family. Dr. Kremchek donated money and raised funds from his Beacon colleagues to help pay for the $2 million stadium complex, which opened last season.
“The Kremchek family has been a part of the Moeller family for decades and has already given so much to our teams, students, coaches and families,” Moeller president Marshall Hyzdu said in a news release when the stadium project was announced. “We are eternally grateful for the Kremchek’s long and deep commitment to the school.”
The Kremchek family also supports the school by providing five annual scholarships that help underprivileged students.
“Our family started the scholarships to honor what Moeller meant to my bad and to honor what the school does in the community,” Dr. Kremchek said. “His love for the school went beyond sports. He knew the families. He went to the tailgating. He helped with the fundraisers. It was a part of his life.”
