Middlewoods of Newington Continues Annual Rock Cats Game Tradition

Residents of Middlewoods of Newington continued their annual Rock Cats Game tradition, Wednesday, June 17th.

Newington, CT (June 25, 2015) - Residents of Middlewoods of Newington Independent and Assisted Living Community continued their annual Rock Cats Game tradition, Wednesday, June 17th, with a trip to New Britain Stadium for a night out at the ballpark. The group was joined by staff and family members who all gathered in the parking lot for a pre-game tail-gate party before heading in to catch the first pitch, thrown by the Middlewoods of Newington mascot, “Woody the Bear”. The event was organized by 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 six years, making “a night out at the ballpark” an annual tradition!
