Bernards Bombers played in honor of Michael Bernard, who served the Marlborough/Hudson area as a paramedic for 20 years. He died in January, days after he was diagnosed with pancreatic and liver cancer.

“There are a lot of co-workers on this team,” said Shauna O’Brien.

Proceeds also helped Ed Sheldon, a local volunteer who was diagnosed with ALS last year; and Martha Fulham, a lifelong resident of the Marlborough/Hudson area who had been diagnosed with cancer. She has been an active volunteer with the Marlborough Eagles for many years.

The Eagles fielded a team, as did the Marlborough Fire Department, the Bolton Street Tavern, Walker Development and Construction Management, and the Marlborough Shamrocks.

“We’re a group of friends having a good time,” said Caitlyn Lucht of Hudson, a member of the team Slim Kickens.

“It’s a big benefit, and it’s been great,” said Dan Marlborough of Sartorius, a pharmaceutical company in Marlborough.

In addition to the tournament, there was a raffle, live music and plenty of food. Several persons and organizations also sponsored a base.

“I want to do a shoutout to Bob Kays of the Prospector … he donated a lot of the food,” said Kim Otte.
