A Night Out with the Rock Cats!

Middlewoods of Newington residents, Ralph Holmstrom and Ed Hornkohl enjoyed a night out with the Rock Cats on Friday, June 20th at New Britain Stadium. The gentlemen were joined by a group of fellow residents, family members, and staff who gathered at the ball park to cheer on the Rock Cats and enjoy a pre-game tail-gate party in the parking lot. Loretta Ward, Chef Manager at Middlewoods of Newington, served up hot dogs and hamburgers off the grill before the group headed in to catch the first pitch, thrown by the Middlewoods of Newington mascot, “Woody the Bear”.  The event was organized by Activities Director, Lynn Tracey, and the Middlewoods of Newington team, and also included staff, residents, and family members from their sister community, Middlewoods of Farmington. Both communities have been attending Rock Cats games and tailgating in the parking lot with their residents and families for the past five years, making “a night out with the Rock Cats” an annual tradition!
