Other events:

On Saturday, there’s a buffet to benefit VegWorcester at LovingHut on Chander Street from noon to 7 p.m.

And from 6-11 p.m. on Saturday at the Auburn American Legion, it’s a fundraiser for Tyler Beede. A budding pitcher originally from Auburn, this Lawrence Academy student and player is slated to play in quite a few prestigious baseball events this summer. To cushion the travel costs, Tyler’s family is hosting this benefit – it costs $10 at the door, and there’s a huge raffle going on with lots of great prizes.
Beede will head to Florida for the Perfect Game National Showcase on June 17 at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg. Then it’s on to tryouts for Baseball USA’s Tournament of Stars. If Beede doesn’t make the USA squad, he’ll return to pitch for the Virginia Canes, a team he helped to a national title last summer. Beede also has plenty of showcase games lined up, which will have him playing at Petco Park (Aflac All-American Game), Wrigley Field (Under Armour All-American Game) and Yankee Stadium (Rawlings All-American Game).
