On Sunday, July 23^rd, teams from Disney’s Lighthouse Point project took to the field to mark the conclusion of a months-long effort to update the Tarpum Bay Ballfield. Work began in January of 2023 and included a 50 foot expansion of the outfield, new infield surfaces and fencing, dugout updates, seating, and a new concession stand. American Bridge Bahamas (AB Bahamas) led the work, organizing key suppliers and overseeing the improvements. Volunteers from the Tigers, Mosquitoes, Tarpum Bay Primary School, and local businesses helped to prepare it for Sunday’s game.

Two Lighthouse Point teams, the Blues and the Grays (a nod to their jersey colors) faced off in a friendly game, with the Grays coming out victorious by a score of 23-22. Then, the best players from the Lighthouse Point team joined forces to take on the Mosquitoes. Support from the stands leaned heavily towards the home team, who rallied several times to keep it a close one. However, it was the visiting Lighthouse Point All-Stars that managed to come away with the victory.

Community and teamwork were the themes of the day, with nearly 100 spectators coming down to watch. Lighthouse Point chefs prepared and served snacks, fruit, and cool drinks for everyone in attendance. Music from DJ Snow flowed through the entire afternoon.
