Are you ready for a Jewish Family Friendly outing that is easy on the wallet??
Attached is a flyer for the Lakewood Blueclaw’s Jewish Heritage Night. For those of you that have never been, it is a really fun night! Members of our JCC, old and young, baseball fans and peanut, popcorn and crackerjack fans, come out to root on the Lakewood Blueclaws. This event includes a parade, Kosher food and Baseball bingo.
The cost is substantially less than a “professional” baseball game. So come on out, wear your JCC t-shirt, and lets watch them play ball! Grab your family and let’s have some good old fashioned fun! And don’t forget, guests are welcome!
