New York State Senator Michael Venditto (R, C, I- Massapequa), recently joined with many members of the Massapequa community to welcome the 5th Annual Long Island Challenger Little League Jamboree at John J. Burns Park in Massapequa. The Little League Challenger Division was founded in 1989 to give boys and girls facing physical and mental challenges an opportunity to enjoy the full benefits of Little League participation. Playing with baseball equipment on Little League fields, Challenger Division participants learn not only the fundamentals of baseball, but also how it feels to pull together as a team, being cheered by family and friends.
