Our Boston Area 2017 Summer Event – Play Ball!

By Mark S.

 

On Saturday, 24 June, ActioNeters from the Boston, MA area gathered at LeLacheur Park to enjoy dinner and a minor league baseball game.  We gathered under the shelter of the stadium seating before the game for the Home Plate BBQ, an all-you-can-eat buffet, which featured Slow-cooked Ribs, Pulled Pork, BBQ Chicken, Hamburgers, Hot Dogs and several sides. Ray B, our Business Unit VP for Defense Programs, flew in from New Orleans to meet the Boston Team. Next, we took our seats almost behind home plate along the third base line to watch the Lowell Spinners play the Connecticut Tigers.

 

While the Spinners suffered a 9-2 loss on the field, ActioNeters and their guests enjoyed the tremendous weather and a post-game fireworks show. We had several firsts at the game as many of the children enjoyed their first baseball game. With unlimited access to the Foul Ball Fun Zone, children participated in the dunk tank, multiple fair-like games, and slides. One of the children was lucky enough to get a foul ball while playing near the Fun Zone! Following the game, some of the ActioNeters and their families ran the bases while waiting for the fireworks show to begin.
