Well known musician Joe McConnell has been named the Max Colegrove Citizen of the Year for 2008 by the Mansfield Chamber.

The award dinner is set for Thursday, June 5 at the Mansfield Fire Hall. Tickets at $15 are available at The Pennysaver, Photos by Dart, Northwest Savings Bank and First Citizens Bank.
McConnell was an amateur big band leader for many years, with appearances throughout New York State and Pennsylvania. He is also well known as a keyboard player for "Spare Parts" and trumpet player with the "X-Ray Big Band." He is a member of the "Catlin Hollow Brass."

Born in Buffalo, NY, McConnell attended Cornell University for two years, studying mechanical engineering, before leaving in March of 1943 to join the U.S. Army Air Corps as an aviation cadet. Graduating as a second lieutenant, McConnell went overseas as a bomber pilot, flying B-25s on 23 combat missions.
