Malden Overcomes Day 2021

We at MOA have much to be thankful for, today especially. We put the call out to many volunteers......you showed up BIG when the temperatures reached over 90 degrees. We reached out to businesses and fellow charitable organizations...they helped out tremendously, huge shoutout to Joseph Crowley #pisapizza for providing ALL of the pizza for todays event, to #breadoflife for providing all of the juice, to the #maldenwarmingcenter for providing ALL of the water for today.

We would also like to thank the City of Malden for helping us to coordinate this community event.

Today's event was filled with endless smiles and much laughter. The never ending line at the water slip-n-slide, the bouncy house where you could hear the kids laughing with delight (and the occasional brave adult), the 600 water balloons that was not only fun, but a much needed reprieve from the heat. The "over 35's" that hoola hooped like pro's and the ever popular tug of war! Today we saw well over 400 come through the park to enjoy games, food, neighbors and new friends! This is the very essence of Malden. We may be particularly bias, but we can not say it enough, Malden is an incredibly special city, we thank you for embracing us and coming out for our community day.

Only 364 more days until the next #maldenovercomes day, see you then!
