TORONTO -- Jays Care Foundation, the charitable arm of the Blue Jays, continued its eventful summer Thursday evening, undertaking an exciting new initiative for youth at one of Toronto's most historic parks.
Members of Jays Care, representatives from Toronto Playgrounds House League Baseball, Toronto city councilor Mike Layton and over 100 youth baseball players gathered at Christie Pits Park in downtown Toronto to announce a $150,000 Field of Dreams investment, which will go toward the installation of lights on Diamond No. 3 at Christie Pits.
"We're so excited to be a part of such an initiative that will impact so many youth in Toronto," Jays Care Foundation executive director Robert Witchel said.
