Officers from the Gloucester City Little League told members of the Gloucester City Business Association (GCBA) last week that at least $35,000 is missing and that charges will be filed.
\”There will be baseball this year,\” said the new treasurer, adding that they are all very upset and embarrassed about what has happened.
\”Some $35,000 has been embezzled, and it has left us bankrupt,\” he said. \”We will be filing charges.\”
He indicated that the person who allegedly stole the money was able to access the League\’s funds through by obtaining a Mac Card and a Visa card, and then withdrawing cash from ATM machines.
\”I considered this person a friend. He fooled all of us,\” said the new treasurer.
\”We refuse to give the name (of the alleged thief),\” said Little League Officer Bruce Darrow. \”It will be out eventually.\”
The Little League asked GCBA members to considering sponsoring a team or putting up a sign to help the organization get back on its feet.
