Initial Youth lacrosse fundraiser is
a big success
Nov 22, 2003

PEPPERELL -- The North Middlesex Youth Lacrosse community
gathered on Saturday night at the Pepperell V.F.W. for
their first-annual silent auction fundraiser. The turnout
was fantastic, with the hall filled to capacity.
The fundraiser's main objective was to fund junior
varsity lacrosse teams. North Middlesex Youth Lacrosse
now needs the school committee's approval to field girls
and boys high school teams in the spring of 2004.
North Middlesex Youth Lacrosse's founding father, Burke
Bero, was saluted in a special ceremony given by high
school-aged boys players. Mr. Bero was thanked for his
many years of service to North Middlesex Youth Lacrosse,
and he pointed out the youth lacrosse program's phenomenal
growth.
Also recognized for starting the girls' lacrosse program
was Rick Terrio. Several high school-aged girls thanked
Mr. Terrio and shared special stories about his coaching
abilities, and the impact lacrosse has had on them.
Both Mr. Bero and Mr. Terrio were visibly moved by
these well-deserved presentations.
