If you weren’t able to get to the New Hampshire Fisher Cats game on Thursday night, then you missed out on a great time! The weather was near perfect with mostly sunny skies prevailing until the sun went down to make way for cooler temps and a “peek-a-boo moon” that floated in and out of the few remaining clouds. Despite a loss to the Binghamton Mets, over 200 Verani associates and their families enjoyed food, drinks and camaraderie!

It’s been said that actors should never work with kids or animals or they’ll be outshined. That was pretty much the case last night!  Much to the pride of their beaming parents, children of our associates did shine as they took to the field to take part in the singing of the National Anthem.

And of course, who could forget man’s best friend?  To the delight of over 7,000 spectators, Ollie, the team’s official “bat-dog” retrieved the thrown bats after hitters left the plate for the first few innings.  It looked like the beautiful Golden Retriever only asked for a treat and a pat on the head in return for his loyal service!  The night was capped off by a beautiful display of fireworks that left young and old alike in awe as spectacular colors lit up the night sky.

Thank you to all who participated in this fun filled event, we hope you had as much fun as we did!
