Monday, August 17, 6: 30 p.m. –“Third Monday” General Meeting. LOCATION: The Center at Belvedere. Program: Central Little League.
Tonight we will be joined by Alan Dalkin, president of Central Little League and by the parents of the late Aidan Peters. They will present information about the progress being made in the Aidan Peters Field Lighting Fund. “Aidan never forgot his baseball roots at Central Little League. He loved to go out to the field in the off season and throw and hit with his dad. The field at Pen Park was a second home to Aidan. He knew from experience that Central Little League had a desperate need for lights and the added practice and game time they would facilitate, so he made it his final wish that funds be raised in his memory to acquire them so even more kids would learn to love the game of baseball as much as Aidan did.” They will also endorse the stepped up effort that Kiwanis is making to support the boys and girls of Central Little League all year round, including our participation in a service work night on August 31 to help CLL rebuild a batting cage damaged in a recent storm. (See calendar entry for Aug. 31 below.)
