Pine Banks Park Cleanup Sunday 4/19

by

We need all the Mystics we can get (young and old) this Sunday at 1pm to help do our part to clean up Pine Banks Park.

We are privileged to be able to play on what is far and away best pitch in New England. Part of this privilege is to take a little time out of one day each season and help keep the park clean.

Please show up at 1pm with work gloves and ready to go. We also need as many coils of garden hose as we can to fill up the scrum machine.

Thank you in advance to all of you for making the time to help out in this very important way on Sunday.

See you on Sunday.

GO BLUE!!!
