Bluebeard's Invitation To Celebrate Roosevelt Island Little League Players and Mend Some Fences


You Tube Video of Noah's Roosevelt Island Baseball Game

I received the following invitation:
"A day of celebration"

This Saturday, the kids of Roosevelt Island are celebrating their Little League season with the final two games. I invite all the residents and friends of the island to attend these two games and honor the kids for their passion and love for baseball, as well as their undisputed friendships.

It is an occasion to truly understand the emotions that stem from the children as well as their parents, friends, and neighbors. They are the roots of this community. Once on the field I am confident you will emerge yourself in an atmosphere of sportsmanship that binds our community closer. It is a place where everyone drops their stress, politics, and worldly pressures behind them before entering the filed.

The Red and Blue teams will play for 1st and 2nd place, while the Green and Purple teams play for 3rd and fourth place. And as in any baseball game, there'll be a lot of cheers, encouragements, some fleeting disappointments, as well as celebrations... a demonstration of the Youth Center's successful programs, the volunteer coaches' commitment, and the general celebration of youth on this island.

This invitation is open for EVERYONE: Roosevelt Island children, parents, friends, neighbors, visitors, employees and governors.

It is a place and time to mend hard feelings and a start of island bonding.

Adib Mansour, A.F.
(aka Blue Beard)

Mr. Mansour is the parent who was arrested during the recent little league permit dispute incident.

I think this is a great idea and urge all who can to attend the Celebration. I asked RIOC President Steve Shane to comment and he replied:
See my response, with regrets, below:
Mr. Mansour:
Thank you for the invitation. I unfortunately have survived to the 4th round of a golf tournament in Westchester so will be unable to attend Saturday morning's games.
The sentiments and aspirations for Island bonding are exactly on target. Thank you for expressing them so eloquently.
UPDATE - 4:15 PM - Roosevelt Island Public Safety Director Keith Gurra responds to the invitation:
Thank you for the invitation. I will free up my schedule to attend.

I saw the Director, Deputy Director and several Public Safety Officers inter-mingling with the crowd. All seemed to be getting along quite well. The kids played their hearts out and the community was upbeat. It was a beautiful Day on the Rock.
