"Working with the Rockland Boulders has been great,” said Flynn. “They are really interested in getting involved in the local communities here in Rockland.”
Tickets are $15 each for infield box seats, which can be purchased at http://tinyurl.com/ncfd9boulders. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of tickets through this link will benefit the fire department.
“It's a great park, tickets are cheap, and you can have a really great family-friendly time only a short distance from home, while also helping support a good cause,” said Flynn.
