Miami’s Own Baseball Champ Mike Lowell Hosted the Annual Christmas Party for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade –Hundreds of kids joined Lowell, Santa Claus and face-painting elves in the festivities!

Miami’s own baseball star Mike Lowell, former Florida Marlins and Boston Red Sox player and MVP of the 2007 World Series, hosted a special holiday party for 150 kids at Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s Hank Kline Facility.

For the fourth consecutive year, Mike Lowell provided each child of the Club with a bag full of toys. He also read Christmas stories to the kids, while Santa Claus joined in the festivities. The children enjoyed bounce houses, face-painting by elves, cotton candy, an indoor slide, food courtesy of McDonald’s and music. For the first year, NESTLÉ® LA LECHERA® co-sponsored the event, helping bring smiles to the children of the community, and offering the first-ever flan making contest, where 8 families competed for a chance to win cash gift cards prizes.

“With the support from the Lowell family we were able to provide kids from the Club gifts this holiday season,” Said Alex Rodriguez-Roig, Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade. “Our annual Holiday party continues to be huge success thanks to their support.”
