BSHOF Provides Checks to Local Organizations

The Bristol Sports Hall of Fame recently presented checks to two local organizations, distributing funds raised from the Seeking Success and Leaving a Legacy event on May 13, 2025. The event raised $7,500.00 in sponsorships, donations, and ticket sales, to support initiatives of the Bristol Boys and Girls Club, the Main Street Community Foundation’s Men & Boys Fund and Women & Girls Fund.

On June 3, 2025, Bristol Sports Hall of Fame Directors attended the Main Street Community Foundation’s annual MVP Breakfast for the Men & Boys Fund. BSHOF President Bob Kalat and Director Dave Mills presented a check for $2,500.00 to the Men & Boys Fund Vice Chair, Joe Mauriello, MSCF CEO, Susan Sadecki, and Mark Zammett, Men & Boys Fund Vice Chair. This funding will support programs, initiatives and immediate response requests that benefit men and boys in Bristol, Burlington, Plainville, Plymouth, Southington and Wolcott to help improve the quality of their lives, increase self-sufficiency and make a positive difference in their community.

BSHOF Director Dave Mills attended the June 21, 2025 BBGC Banner Breakfast event to present the Club with a $2,500.00. The funds will be used to help pay for the Club’s new turf field, which will increase opportunities for athletic activities for community youth. The Hall of Fame’s contribution kicked off the BBGC’s fundraising campaign for the field.
