CGJBSL Host Opening Day 2014

Cedar Grove Junior Baseball and Softball League host 2nd Annual Opening Day Ceremony.

On Sunday April 6th the Cedar Grove Junior Baseball and Softball League hosted it's 2nd Annual Opening Day Celebration. Undeterred by a last minute scheduling conflict, and with excellent weather in hand, the event went off without a hitch.

Players from the recreation and travel leagues marched from the Blasi Field facility to the grand stadium like atmosphere of Panther Park. CGJBSL President John Castiglione formally announced each team as they marched onto the Panther Park stage. In true opening day fashion local talent Francesca Catrone provided beautiful vocals for the singing of our National Anthem.

Cedar Grove Mayor and former CGJBSL coach Robert O'Toole, along with Cedar Grove Councilman and former CGJBSL player Peter Tanella threw out the ceremonial first pitch.

The Opening Day Ceremony and all CGJBSL events result from dedicated volunteers who provide countless hours of planning and execution. The CGJBSL would like to thank Phil Cicala and Rob Schimenti for heading up the event. The CGJBSL is eager to expand and grow the Opening Day Ceremony into a long standing tradition.
