The Hall of Fame Foundation was created in 2007 after the Warrenton-Hammond School District Governing Board reinstated funding for coaches salaries after pay for most coaching positions was eliminated in 2004 due to severe budget cuts. From 2004 through 2006, a Dinner/Auction was held and sponsorships were sold to raise money to pay coaches at the middle school and high school. This challenge was met as over $50,000 was raised each of those three years. The 4th annual event, which was held September 22, 2007 at Camp Rilea became a Hall of Fame Induction Banquet instead of a fund-raising auction. Three athletic teams, one individual athlete, one coach, two distinguished faculty, and one community supporter/alumni were inducted into the Hall of Fame. The transition from fund-raising dinner to recognition banquet was a huge success. The Foundation continues to solicit sponsorships from individuals, families, businesses, and corporations for a fund that is used to provide resources to help all activities, academic and extra-curricular, for all students in grades K - 12. within the Warrenton-Hammond School District. It is not just an athletic fund anymore. Estates, memorials, or any other form of donation are also accepted and all donations are tax deductible. Donors can specify if they would like their money to go to a specific program or a specific purchase or project and it will be used for their desired purpose. The proceeds from the Dinner pay all the expenses of the dinner and for honoring the Hall of Fame Inductees allowing all sponsorship and donated monies to be available for the kids of Warrenton.

The Warrenton High School Hall of Fame was established in 2007 to honor those who have made Warrenton proud because of their accomplishments as an alumni, staff member, or community member who has contributed to the successes of Warrenton High School. In the fall of each year, a banquet is held to induct a class of individuals and teams who have been selected for induction from nominations received from members of the Warrenton family who submit the names of deserving individuals and teams for consideration. The Hall of Fame Committee is currently soliciting nominations for the Class of 2009. Nominations are due April 1, 2009.
