A great success with thanks to our sponsors!
Such a great night at this year’s Softball Benefit Game! With so many things going on, finger printing from Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department, Pembroke Firetruck, Police cars and motorcycle. WATD and PACTV were there too! And free hamburgers and hotdogs supplied and cooked by A Fork in the Road’s Lori Cook and A Bee Tent Rental’s Jason Cook……..delicious! And we can’t forget the special appearance from Gobbles of the Plymouth Pilgrims and Blades the Bear of the Boston Bruins who put some seriously big smiles on all the children’s faces.
We did it!
This year was our 6th Annual Softball Benefit with the standings 3 (police/Fire) and 2 (Pembroke Chamber). We needed to tie this one up and we did with a monumental win over the Pembroke Police/Fire of 22-8! Way to go team!
With a great big thank you to our sponsors below. We were able to help the Pembroke Titans Against Drugs raise $1700 towards their fight against drugs. Amazing job to everyone who attended!

Each year the Commission gathers nominations from across the state for women who make outstanding contributions to their organizations and communities. The Honorees are nominated by state legislators as a means of recognizing women for their previously unnoted yet valuable community contributions. Please join us in congratulating Janet LaBerge of Pembroke for being named a 2015 Unsung Heroine of Massachusetts! The Unsung Heroines are women who don’t make the news, but make the difference in their communities, businesses, or volunteer endeavors. The Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women will honor and celebrate the Unsung Heroines from across the Commonwealth at the 2015 Unsung Heroines Ceremony on Wednesday, June 17 at the Massachusetts State House. The event will be held in the Great Hall from 1-4 p.m. with registration opening at 11:30 a.m. The day will include a speaking program, a collective photo of all Heroines on the Grand Staircase and a Just Desserts. Congratulations Janet! And thank you to everyone who made a nomination.
