World Series trophy to Visit Dracut
Can you believe it?
The Red Sox World Series trophy will touch almost all the bases in Greater Lowell on Saturday.
The $15,000 sterling-silver trophy will visit Tyngsboro, Groton, Dunstable, Pepperell and Westford this Saturday, beginning at 10 a.m., at the Tyngsboro Elementary School on Westford Road.
The visits, arranged by state Sen. Steve Panagiotakos and state Reps. Bob Hargraves, Colleen Garry and Geoff Hall, is sponsored by the Massachusetts State Lottery.
After winning their first world championship in 86 years, the Sox promised to take the trophy to any city or town in New England that requests it.
No players are expected to accompany the trophy Saturday, but the Westford Academy High School Alumni Association will hold a scholarship fund-raiser party during the Westford visit.
Raffles, face painting and balloons are included in the baseball theme night, said Jim Arciero, Panagiotakos’ legislative director and president of the alumni association.
The trophy is also scheduled to visit Dracut on April 5, and is expected to swing through Shirley, Ayer, Harvard and Littleton on April 14.
