2nd Annual Erin Nero Memorial Golf Tournament - May 30, 2009
Dear Friends:
We would like to welcome you to the Capital Region Miracle League Golf Tournament.
The Miracle League is a non-profit organization that provides children with special needs an opportunity to play baseball and other sports on a specially equipped custom-designed, synthetic turf field to accommodate wheelchairs and other assertive devices while helping to prevent injuries. Construction of the field has been completed and future plans for the concession/storage facility are slated to begin this year.
All proceeds collected from this tournament are being donated to the Miracle League Association for the construction of this concession/storage facility in memory to Erin Nero, an avid sports fan.
Please join us on May 30th at Burden Lake Country Club.
We thank you for your participation and contribution to this most worthy cause.
Fred Nero
Father and Tournament Organizer
