The Village of Millerton invites you

to celebrate the completion of

Phase 1 of Eddie Collins Memorial Park

Millerton’s Community Park

Saturday October 1, 2022

  • The Millerton 3 on 3 started in 2000 for the celebration of Millerton 125 years of history by Donald Najdek at a suggestion from his mother, Mariley Najdek, who was the Mayor at the time.

    We missed a few years due to COVID but this will be the 22nd year.

    We welcome all B-Ball players. Bring chairs and enjoy a fun-filled day of competitive players and a love for basketball.

    All proceeds will be donated to local charities.

    This year there will be a moment of silence and dedication for two long-time players who had played for almost all of the 19 previous seasons. They both passed away in the past few years, much too young: Chris Mckenna and Jason Rabideau.

    Sign-up information:

    4 people per team

    Two different age groups:

    Under 18 (14-17 recommended but younger allowed with parental permission) and

    Over 18 (THE OPEN DIVISION)

    Cost:

    $100 per team if signed up by Sept. 24th

    $125 per team if signed up between Sept. 25th and Oct. 1st

    Cost includes entry to the tournament and gift bag

    The many benefits of equine-assisted therapies include accepting and earning responsibilities, building confidence, self-esteem, empowerment, trust and a sense of general well-being. Studies show that equine therapy reduces stress levels, anxiety, anger, and even blood pressure.
