Kiwanis Night at the Ballpark

Friday, June 19, 2009

Birmingham vs. Huntsville

First Pitch at 7:05 PM

Please join your fellow Kiwanians for a family night out in Regions Park located in Hoover, Alabama near Birmingham. We will once again enjoy hamburgers, hotdogs, baked beans, chips, drinks and Bud’s Best cookies in the covered, open-air Robin Ventura Patio and the Razor Shines air-conditioned party room located on the 1st base side along with box seats directly below the patio.

Some of the events of the evening include having our Kiwanis name appear on the large light board, opportunity for a first pitch, the first 1,500 adults receive a Bobby Jenks Bobble head giveaway AND a spectacular fireworks display for the entire family to enjoy. This is truly a choice evening to attend a Barons/Huntsville ball game with your friends.

Price for Adult is $16.99 and $10.00 per child 2 years of age and older. Children under 2 get in free. Please RSVP to your club president (or designated club social director). It is important for us to get an idea of attendance to ensure there is enough food. SAVE THE DATE AND JOIN US IN THE FESTIVITIES.
