    Won’t you and yours please join us on our next great day trip on Sunday afternoon August 19th? We have privately chartered a coach bus for the day and have great seats! This fun trip is open to the public and to all ages! Awesome memories await you!

    This one is for the baseball fans in our lives! MLB games are expensive and this is the next best thing- especially for Red Sox fans!

    The Pawtucket Red Sox (known colloquially as the PawSox) are a professional Minor League baseball team based in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The team is a member of the International League and is the Triple-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox. They will play Durham Bulls 1:35 pm game at McCoy Stadium which is home to the Paw Sox Baseball team. The coach bus is all ours.

    Cost includes game ticket for Section 4 behind home plate (in the shade), a $2 food voucher and coach bus transportation. $49/resident. We depart from Groton Senior Center at 10:45 am so plenty of parking.

    ALSO~ 3 awesome game day promotions!!

    1. Paw Sox Baseball Card Set The first 5,000 fans entering McCoy Stadium will receive a Paw Sox Baseball Card Set compliments of Dunkin’ Donuts.
    2. Summer Catch on the Field Fans, come and enjoy a summer catch on the field prior to the start of every Sunday afternoon game from noon until 12:30 pm. The Paw Sox will provide both real and squishy baseballs for all to participate, so bring your glove and a buddy and make McCoy your field of dream.
    3. Sunday Post Game Run the Bases Fans of all ages are welcome to Run the Bases after the game
