The Arc of Middlesex County

We are very proud to be 1 of 855 organizations awarded a grant from the Darden Foundation!

Hi everyone,

Once again The New York Mets asked The Arc Middlesex County to participate in their Autism Awareness Day. This year’s event is taking place on April 27th. It is a 1:05pm game vs. The Phillies.

The Mets will be raising awareness for autism, a disorder that affects 1 in 88 American children. A portion of each ticket sold through this advance offer will benefit The Arc Middlesex County. There will be early entry for participating families via the Bullpen Plaza beginning at 11:10am. There will also be pre-game party activities in the Bullpen Plaza, which will include Art Therapy, soccer drills by Super Soccer Stars and more!

The attached flyer will give you more information about tickets and pricing. To purchase tickets please visit: www.mets.com/Autism and click on Arc Middlesex.

Please feel free to spread this widely!

Thanks for the support,
Emily
