PARSIPPANY — Par-Troy Little League West held its Opening Night on Thursday, April 20 and kicked off the season with a parade, opening ceremony and games. One of the highlights of the evening was Alicia DePasquale Bozza signing the National Athem. Among the teams this year are the dePierro Defenders, Carifi’s Crusaders, Tabor Pizzeria, Valori’s Vikings, Bagel City Grill, Quick Chek, Sizzle Tan, Peluso Pride and Barberio’s Bombers.
One of the highlights of the evening was an award given to Tommy Catapano from Boy Scout Troop 173. He managed a service project that he organized from start to finish. The project benefits the Par-Troy West Little League Baseball complex.
Catapano constructed tiers in the side of a small hill that teams and spectators use for seating throughout the season. By making these tiers, not only did he make the area look nicer, it will become an area that teams can meet and conduct after game meetings and that people can really enjoy. This is one of the final steps Tommy needed to complete to reach the rank of Eagle.
