To the editor:
Our sincere thanks and congratulations to the Friends of Lynnfield Recreation for the incredible community event that was the Third Annual Cornhole Tournament on the Green at MarketStreet this past weekend.
Volunteering is a demanding task, but well worth the reward. Behind every successful event in Lynnfield, there are always amazing volunteers.
The Friends of Lynnfield Recreation Committee never asks for the spotlight, but Patricia Hazelton, Jes Doherty, Jess Saccardo, Heather Rose, Lauren Hurton, Jess Capodilupo, Stacey Cook, Kristin Lorentzen and Julie Mallett are the backbone of this event and work selflessly to make a tangible difference for the citizens of Lynnfield.
These acts of kindness have the ripple effect of positively enhancing the opportunities available through Lynnfield Recreation.
I respect the spirit of volunteerism immensely. Nothing turns neighbors into friends faster than powerful moments of shared community engagement. The Lynnfield Recreation Commission is continually inspired to keep pace with innovative programs, activities, facilities, and inclusive community offerings for all. It is the amazing efforts of the Friends of Lynnfield Recreation that propel these goals forward.
I would also like to thank the incredible generosity of MarketStreet and the Alchemy restaurant for their partnership, as well as the many sponsors, cornhole players, and spectators that made this event a huge success. We will always be grateful to each of you.
