FOOTBALL FOR A CAUSE
Located in Mountain Lakes but serving Parsippany, Denville, Montville, Boonton, Kinnelon and more local towns in Morris County, the Y participated in The Bizzie Bowl on Saturday, July 17. This was a flag football tournament fundraiser for a Parsippany family with medical needs. The tournament was held at Smith Field in Parsippany, with over 100 teams raising desperately needed funds. Our Y also donated a family membership as a top prize in the silent auction.
The Y team consisted of: From left to right: John Maute, Brandon Glyck, Chris Becker, Anthony Shovlowsky, Nick Musap, AJ Santos, Brandon Bowen, Jim Durkan and John Smith.
