Somerset Patriots/Operation Shoebox
August 14, 2009

"Salute the Flag" at TD Bank Ballpark, Bridgewater, 7:05 p.m. Operation Shoebox New Jersey is the sponsor of this game - Patriots vs. Newark Bears. Every fan that enters the ballpark will be presented with a miniature American flag; the first 2,000 fans will be given a red/white/blue camouflage beach bag. We are hoping for a sell out, as this will be an opportunity for every one to display their pride in America. Fans will be asked to stand up and wave their flags at a prescribed time during the game to allow news and camera crews from the media to record the event, a continuous wave of red, white and blue that will make a dramatic photo and resounding affirmation of fans' patriotism.

Operation Shoebox New Jersey will make several presentations on the field, and will unveil an original portrait of Sparky Lyle that is being painted by noted sports artist James Fiorentino and presented to OPSHBX NJ as a gift for fund raising purposes. OPSHBX NJ will present a print of the original to Sparky on the field.
