The Wasabi Fenway Bowl is a football game played at the historic baseball stadium. The inaugural game was last year, according to Sean Hathaway of Issues Management Group, which sent the release, and the game now is set to return to Fenway at 11 a.m. Thursday, Dec. 28, when the Boston College football team is slated to play against Southern Methodist University.
Teachers nominated for the Honor Roll are invited to attend the game.
“I’ve watched this game on TV and have seen colleagues from New England being awarded. I’ve admired the work that these colleagues of minehave done for their school systems, and never would I have thought that I could’ve been at Fenway Park one day and receive the same award,” wrote D’Agostino, who is also known by his nickname “Tino.”
According to the news release, this year’s awards bring the grant total by the Wasabi Fenway Bowl to more than $100,000 for more than 120 educators across New England. The grants are provided by the Wasabi Fenway Bowl in partnership with Extra Yard for Teachers, Sam Adams, Amica Insurance, Moderna and Meet Boston.
