The Mirage Fastpitch Softball Organization would like to salute the 2010 CT Mirage Gold team for their help in a joint fund raising effort with the CT Women's Softball League to help families of the victims of the recent Manchester Distributors tragedy. Thanks to the generosity of the organization's families and friends, the initial fund raising goal was far exceeded. In total, $2,543 was raised. The Mirage Fastpitch Softball Family salutes the players and coaches of both teams, umpires, friends, and families who rearranged their schedules on such short notice (including some who rearranged their vacations). In addition, some players and their families took it upon themselves to fund raise on their own and deliver the proceeds to us at the game. Others donated far in excess of the suggested ticket price. We are deeply humbled by the depth of concern of all who helped support us.The final score was CT Mirage Gold 10, the CT Women's Softball League All-Stars 8.
