MOULTONBOROUGH — Members of the Boys
& Girls Club of the Lakes Region were chosen by
Cortina Productions of McLean, Virginia to be in a
video for the New England Patriots Museum being
built across from Gillette Stadium in Foxboro.
On Monday, October 8, the youngsters were able to play
football at Castle in the Clouds in Moultonborough
and become part of a video that will be played at the
museum’s opening, scheduled for July 2008.
“The youth learned what it is like to try and get it
right after many takes and also in waiting for the fog
to lift and get another take in before more fog rolled
in,” said Executive Director Dianne Zawacki. “They were
treated to lunch and were also given a New England
Patriots shirt for their time volunteering. All in all the
taping lasted for approximately six hours.
Plans will be made for all participants to go to Foxboro
to see the museum and video, said Zawacki.
