Come down to the Brookside Community Center in Mendham Township on Saturday, April 24, 2010 to support the Mendham Little League at their annual fundraiser. Tickets are $60 and with your purchase you receive three drink tickets, dinner and entertainment, The Meathooks . There will also be a silent auction with many terrific items to take your chance at winning.

Mendham Little League has been in operation since 1998, when the league was created to fill the desire for organized play for girls and boys over the age of 13 in Mendham Borough and Township. Prior to this, children played in the Babe Ruth league, which offered a limited number of teams. Over 350 volunteers run this program which benefits more than 750 children. This includes managers, coaches, team parents, players, umpires and board members.

If you’re out and about in Chester or Mendham this weekend, check out The Meathooks, a great local band that is creating a lot of buzz. Formed in 2003 by James Vilade and Brian Wilson from Mendham, the band has a great sound- think ‘Grateful Dead meets Tom Petty, in the form of Soundgarden’. They have a new album in the works so come out see what all the buzz is about! On Friday, Jan. 29th at 7pm, Brian and James will perform an acoustic set at The Publick House, 111 Main Street in Chester. The Publick House is a great spot, the bar area is cozy and their brick oven pizzas are terrific. Saturday, Jan. 30th at 9:30pm, they come home to The Pub at the Black Horse Tavern, 1 W. Main Street in Mendham. The Pub has great atmosphere, great food and is always a good time. For more info visit: www.chesterpublickhouse.com, www.blackhorsenj.com, and www.themeathooks.com.
