2015 Little Lake Monsters Community All-Star Team Announced

After hundreds of amazing applications over the past couple of months, the New York-Penn League’s Vermont Lake Monsters are pleased to announce the nine kids named to the 2015 Little Lake Monsters Community All-Stars, brought to you by Northwestern Urgent Care.
 
The nine winners were selected by a committee based on their answers to three questions that focused on sportsmanship, living a healthy lifestyle and their efforts in the community. Each of the winners will be rewarded with an experience of a lifetime, and live the life of a professional baseball player for a day on Friday, August 14th.
 
“The Little Lake Monsters Community All-Stars program was created to get kids and families talking and thinking about important issues and life lessons, and giving kids something to strive for,” said Lake Monsters’ Executive Director, Sales & Marketing, Nate Cloutier. “Living a healthy lifestyle, being a good sport, and doing good things in your community are important values to our partner Northwestern Medical Center as well, so this promotion is a winner for everyone involved. To see the smiles on these nine kids faces is truly what it is all about!”
 
This year’s Little Lake Monsters Community All-Stars are:
• Barret Barrows  (Vergennes, VT)
• Dakota Brink  (Mooers Forks, NY)
• Zander Clark  (West Fairlee, VT)
• Joshua Lovejoy  (Westford, VT)
• Cayley Renaudette  (Franklin, VT)
• Olivia Sanborn  (Richmond, VT)
• Anson Seibert  (St. Albans, VT)
• Lucas Templeton  (Milton, VT)
