The Gloucester City Mustangs, Gloucester City Girls Softball, Gloucester City Soccer, Carmen Palmeiro Basketball League and Gloucester Little League rely on the efforts of volunteers.\"\"

Look at your son or daughter’s uniform and you will see a name of a business or group on the front. It may be considered advertising to some people but how many of you have made

an effort to either support or even give thanks to these sponsors. Many sponsors donate to these Leagues even during these difficult times to help offset the cost each athlete pays to participate. During the past year, many of these contributors have made an extra effort to support the Gloucester City Little League during last year’s financial difficulties.
