Matt:
These are awesome photos. This is the 26th Annual LaFesta baseball Tournament. We were extremely proud to have the Boston Police Honor Guard participate in this year’s event, as well as Officer Dave Saddler throw out the first pitch. NEAD has partnered with the Boston Police Area A-1 and Officer Teddy Boyle since our beginnings and now, more than ever, we are proud to call them our friends. We thank them for their help, bravery and for keeping us safe every day.
I hope everyone in the neighborhood comes out to our National Night Out Celebration on Tuesday, August 2nd at the Prado to celebrate our collaboration with the Boston Police, Mayor Walsh and Commissioner Evans! 6pm to 9pm.
