Tee Ball Game at Executive Mansion with Governor Paterson

On Monday July 26, 2010, 6 and 7 year olds from the Garden City Bombers RBI baseball team will be playing in a tee ball game at the Executive Mansion in Albany, with the "first pitch" being thrown out by New York Governor David Paterson. After the big game, the boys will be served lunch by the Governor's Chef, and get a VIP tour of the Executive Mansion.   

The boys have been practicing hard, getting ready for the game.

The Garden City Bombers RBI teams, ranging in ages from 6 through 17, are made up of half Garden City residents, and half from other surrounding neighborhoods, including Hempstead and Roosevelt. Our local baseball stars will play a team from a local team from the state capital.     

The local sponsors for this event include Garden City Patch, StarPulse.com, Drexler Construction and Creative Display Solutions.  

The Garden City Bombers Baseball is part of the Major Baseball RBI program. For more information, contact GCBombers@aol.com, call 637-8644 or visit http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/official_info/ community/rbi.jsp
