The West Haven Twilight League will hold its 60th annual Gold Bat Awards on Saturday, Sept. 28, at West River Hall, 37 Orlando St. Doors open at 1 p.m. with a luncheon buffet and awards starting promptly at 1:30 p.m.
League President Mike Torello, Commissioner Dan Gooley and the WHTL Board of Directors recently named this year’s honorees. They include Gold Bat Award recipients Blake Barone, Kevin Bowerman, Albie Kissner, Sal Savo and Joe Smeraglino.
The league will present the Bob Moran Lifetime Achievement Award to Larry DeLeo. The Community Service Award will be presented to Maureen B. Lillis, MPH, Director of Health, City of West Haven.
Tickets are $60 per person and can be obtained online at WHTL.org or by emailing your ticket request to rcdepew@comcast.net. Seating is limited, and we are hoping that many past Gold Bat Award recipients can attend or donate to the WHTL.
To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Gold Bat Awards, the league is looking for old photos and news articles from the past. Contact Roland Depew, Gold Bat Awards Chairperson for the West Haven Twilight League Board of Directors. rcdepew@comcast.net.
