We ask the Township Board of Supervisors to rename the new softball fields at Potomac Park in Mount Bethel after Ariel Beltrano, in honor of his many years of service to UMBT girls’ softball.
For about 17 years, Ariel served as a coach and local administrator for the program. He was known for his community-mindedness, his humor, and the example he set through volunteerism. He gave his time and energy to help build and support girls’ softball in a way that touched many people in our community.
Ariel recently passed away after a battle with cancer, and this naming would be a meaningful way to recognize the impact he had on the program and on those around him. The new softball fields at Potomac Park in Mount Bethel are a fitting place to carry his name, because they reflect the sport and the community he supported for so long.
By signing this petition, we are asking the Township Board of Supervisors to show appreciation for Ariel’s long support of UMBT girls’ softball and to preserve his memory in a place that will continue to bring families together for years to come. We hope the township will consider this request and honor Ariel Beltrano in a lasting and public way.

Ariel was a staple in the UMBT softball community. He dedicated his time and heart to the league. He made every player feel like they mattered. He taught them teamwork, to problem solve and the skills to be successful.
Ariel was such a great guy & coach! Had such an impact on myself & MANY other softball players! Seeing this park named after him, would just simply warm my heart!
Coach Ariel always had the best interest of the players! He was truly an amazing coach and mentor, this is special.
He was a great coach. He was coaching when my daughter was younger and you could just see and feel his love, patience and kindness for softball and every girl he coached.
Ariel’s balance of fun and determination made him a wonderful coach and teacher of life skills
Ariel made a huge impact on those he loved and coached.
In loving memory of Ariel Beltrano.

I am signing this because he was a wonderful person and a great coach. I didn’t grow up with him really as my coach but I grew up watching my sister and his daughter be coached by him. As well as one of my last years playing his other daughter coached me. I am now 20 years old and if they could get this to be done in his honor would be wonderful. May he rest in peace and may his family find closure during these hard times.
