HELP US REPAIR OUR FIELDSThe FHYAA and Forest Hills Little League Need Your Help !!!

Posted by Michael Polikoff on Sep 19 2010 at 05:00PM PDT in Fall 2018

On Thursday evening, September 16, Forest Hills was hit by a freak Tornado. The Fleet Street Fields lay directly in its path. Fields 2, 3, and 4 were severely damaged. At least 40 trees were blown down, the backstop on field 2 was destroyed, a water line from our sprinkler system was cut as a result of a falling tree, the bleachers on field 2 were damaged, and the scoreboard on field 3 was blown down and much of fencing on fields 2 & 3 were damaged. An electrical control panel from one of the light poles on field 3 was blown off.  Numerous trees will need to be cut down as a safety measure.

 

We need your help!  The cost of the cleanup and repair will cost thousands of dollars.  You can help by coming to the FHYAA Dinner Dance and Benefit Auction on Saturday, October 30, 2010.  The event will take place at Bruno’s On The Boulevard  from 8pm until 1pm.  Cost is $65.00 per person which includes cocktail hour, open bar, buffet dinner and dancing to the music of DJ Stevie Z. Halloween costumes are encourage but not required. We are now accepting reservations.  Tickets will not be sold at the door. All adults are welcome.

 

To secure your spot, please send a check for $65 per person with your name and address to the FHYAA clubhouse at 66-01 Fleet Street, Forest Hills, New York, 11375, Attn: Larry Berkowitz.  Download and print your response card
