AMPAL Group Hosts First EWRF Event for the Raiders Baseball League
On Oct. 12, a Watchung, New Jersey, Buffalo Wild Wings© location owned by AMPAL Group hosted the Scotch Plains-Fanwood Baseball League Day. This was the first Eat Wings Raise Funds event BWW© has hosted for the Raiders.
“AMPAL Group strives to help each and every local school, sports team, organization, charity, etc. raise funds to help meet their needs,” said franchisee Amit Patel. “Watchung Buffalo Wild Wings has had great success with helping local organizations, such as the Raiders, raise funds to help offset costs associated with out-of-state trips the teams must take for tournaments.”
The league, which includes boys and girls, consists of pre-k, tee ball, AA Minors (second grade), AAA Minors (third and fourth grade), Majors (fifth and sixth grade) and Seniors (seventh through 10th grade) divisions.
B-Dubs® donated 20 percent of sales from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. to the league, which resulted in a check of more than $350. Each of AMPAL Group’s Buffalo Wild Wings locations sponsors a local youth sports team each quarter to help pay for uniforms, travel and equipment.
“AMPAL Group takes great pride in giving back to the community and being able to invite the team into Buffalo Wild Wings is an added bonus,” said Patel. “Being a part of the local community is what it’s all about for us, and we are honored that we are able to help ensure the Raiders get to Cooperstown for their big tournament.”
