Senator Helming to Sponsor Upcoming Geneva Red Wings Game

GENEVA – Senator Pam Helming today announced that she will host Senator Helming Night at McDonough Park for the second year in a row. This special event will take place as the hometown Geneva Red Wings take on their regional rival Newark Pilots, and it will coincide with the 60^th anniversary celebration of McDonough Park. The Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League game will start at 7:05 p.m. Friday, June 22, and the park is located at 180 Lyceum St. in Geneva.

“I appreciate the opportunity from the Geneva Red Wings to once again sponsor a game at McDonough Park between the Red Wings and the Newark Pilots. I look forward to an exciting game between our two local teams in the Wayne-Finger Lakes region. Last year, I had the privilege of honoring former Hobart and William Smith Colleges President Mark Gearan with the New York State Senate Liberty Medal for his many achievements on behalf of the Geneva community. This year, I have the pleasure of recognizing the 60^th anniversary of McDonough Park as a community institution for sports and recreation. I encourage everyone to come out to the game and enjoy a family-friendly night of fun and entertainment,” Senator Helming said.

As part of Senator Helming’s sponsorship of the game, a certain number of free tickets will be available for those who attend the game. These tickets can be picked up at Senator Helming’s District Office in advance or claimed at the gate on the day of the game. To reserve tickets for groups, please call Senator Helming’s District Office at (315) 568-9816 or stop by at 425 Exchange St. in Geneva. She will also present a New York State Senate Proclamation to the Red Wings to commemorate McDonough Park’s 60^th anniversary. She encourages people to come out to support these college-level baseball players as well as the park’s 60^th anniversary.
