Our 7^th anniversary “party with a purpose” featuring special guest bartender Brian Cashman raised $1,200 to benefit Ed Randall’s Bat for the Cure, which promotes prostate cancer awareness. In case you had not seen, the event generated a lot of press, including the entire back page of the Daily News and plenty of TV coverage, including a 4-minute piece on MLB Network and MLB.com. Thanks again to the Yankees GM-Irish American Baseball Hall of Famer for a job well done!

Commemorate the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre
