Good Morning,

 

As many of you know, Shane Esposito, former NB Youth Lacrosse player and current sophomore lacrosse player for NB High School, and brother of our 8th grade player Mason, suffered a Grade 4 trauma kidney injury while playing the game he loves. He is currently under medical care and has a long road to recovery ahead of him. In an effort to show our support, we are looking to collect $5.00 from each family. We will purchase a gift card to a local restaurant so that dinner is one less thing they need to worry about as they focus on his recovery. If you can donate, that would be great! If you cannot, no worries at all. We understand times are tough for all, but we are hoping to do a little something to show our support on behalf of NB Youth Lacrosse. 

 

You can venmo me @Christine-Gierla-2 and mention "Shane" in your comments, or I can collect the donation in cash. Whichever is easier for you.  Please keep the Esposito family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate through his recovery. 

 

 

Thank you!

Good afternoon,

As we get into full swing with practices and games at the fields on Mill Road and NBHS, I thought this would be a good time to share a message with you from our Parks & Recreation Department regarding field use:

“Please remind all coaches to remind all the athletes & parents to pick up after themselves and leave all fields free of garbage and water bottles at the end of practices and games – it is important to keep our parks clean.  Recycling bins & trash bins have been placed in our parks so please make an announcement to coaches to ensure that all water bottles, soda cans, etc. get placed in the appropriate bins.” – North Branford Parks & Recreation

We should also be aware of a few General Rules & Regulations related to our field use:

• No person shall consume or have in his or her possession any alcoholic beverage in violation of the Code of the Town of North Branford.
• Smoking is prohibited at all properties under the control of the North Branford Recreational Department at all times, including but not limited to; buildings, grounds, entrances, sidewalks, parking lots and parks. Smoking is defined as the use of: cigarettes, pipes, cigars, and other devices that produce smoke, including electronic cigarettes and vaporizers.

While the Coaches will be reminding all of the players to pick up after themselves, I would ask that all parents and guardians periodically reinforce this with your sons and daughters.  

Also, Public Works has put in a significant amount of time and energy over the last few days to repair, fill and regrade the parking area at the Mill Road field.  When pulling in and out of the parking area, please keep in mind that the stone lot can be damaged very easily so I would ask that you move around the lot in your vehicle very slowly.

Thank you all in advance for helping to keep our fields clean and free from trash and debris.  This helps maintain a clean and safe playing environment for your sons and daughters.  Please remember, using the fields in town is a privilege not a right!

Thank you.
