   Two members of the team were in Starbucks in Waban today and clearly they are very excited to be going to Bristol, Connecticut, to play six other teams during the next two weeks. This is very big for them (and for us, too) and they should know that our community is very proud of them and wish them continued success!

   Baseball is alive and well in Newton. To those who attended this morning’s team sendoff ceremony at the steps of city hall, they experienced an inspiring, invigorating and fun event. The Little League officials, the mayor, and his staff wished the team well and to appreciate the upcoming activities in Bristol and hopefully Williamsport. They also asked the team and the audience to acknowledge the efforts of the players’ families, who continue to support them as they chase their dreams.

   It was refreshing to attend a city sponsored event that was not managed by people manipulating city resources and assets to achieve personal benefits. It would be great to have more such meetings.
