St. Hedwig

Hey everyone, hope everyone is having a great day.

So one of the projects that I am working on here at Think Detroit PAL is the St. Hedwig ribbon cutting ceremony, which will take place at 1 p.m. on July 23, 2010, at the St. Hedwig park itself.

The ceremony is to officially honor Detroit Tiger Magglio Ordonez for his thoughtful contribution and commitment to Detroit's youth, and the park. The cool part about the ribbon ceremony is that Magglio Ordonez will actually be there at the park for all the festivities.

Including the ceremony, there will be a baseball game taking place, the unveiling of Summer in the City's mural that they have donated to the park, and a baseball game is nothing without a barbecue that will take place after the official ribbon cutting itself.

St. Hedwig has received many renovations which include a new baseball diamond, new infield, outfield fences, dugouts and bleachers. A few softball diamonds were also cleaned up and freshened up for the children to play on.

I'm very excited about this ribbon cutting ceremony and to see the community come together and receive a great gift for the children.

Thank you everyone, and have a great afternoon
