The time is finally here to kick off our 6th annual American Cancer Society Day at the Ballpark with the St. Louis Cardinals! Our game day is Sunday, August 19, 2018 at 1:15pm at Busch Stadium against the Milwaukee Brewers. Tickets to the game will be $20 for 300 level seats and $35 for 100/200 level sections. Each ticket includes a hot dog and a soft drink AND pre-game festivities such as dug out tours, player autograph sessions and on-field parade.

 This is an awesome opportunity open to committee members, teams, staff and anyone else you can think of to fundraise for their teams and events. A portion of each ticket will be credited directly to your event/team and there are multiple incentives to participate in this program, such as:

·     Everyone with a ticket will receive entrance into the Pre Game Activities including player auto-graphs, dugout tour, etc.

·     An exclusive autograph session for the first 125 volunteers selling 25 or more tickets

·     Top 2 volunteers who sell the most tickets will have the opportunity to throw out the first pitch or choose a meet & greet with a current player (top seller picks first)

·     Those who sell more than 25 tickets, will enter into a drawing for autographed STL Cardinal memorabilia (1 entry per 25 tickets sold)

·     Those who sell more than 50 tickets, will enter into a drawing for the chance to win a STL Cardinals Experience Package that includes 4 box seats and a pregame field visit for another game (1 entry per 50 tickets sold)

·     We will also do a drawing for a 2nd first pitch for anyone that sells more than 100 tickets so additional top sellers will be eligible to win a first pitch as well!

·     New this year: The first 25 people to order and pay for 25 or more tickets, will get 2 free tickets to an April or May weekday game. 1 pair of tickets per customer, tickets must be purchased through the PAY NOW option on the website.

 This is such an easy fundraiser and so much fun! It is awesome to see groups of American Cancer Society volunteers all coming together at the ballpark to celebrate and enjoy a great day of Cardinals baseball! Please promote this at all of your upcoming kick offs and meetings!!

Our designated ticket website, www.stlcardinalsrfl.org is officially LIVE as of Tuesday, February 20!!!Tickets are FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED. Please be sure you take the time to submit your order through the website – these are the only reservations that we will accept!!

·     This year, there will be a tab for the Illinois game and a tab for the Missouri game. Be sure that you click on the Illinois game tab as this is the only game we will get credit for selling tickets.

·     The reservation form will ask how many $20 and $35 tickets you want.  

·     Kids 3 and under get in free. Handicapped accessible seats need to be reserved directly through Mandie at mandie.sidener@cancer.org as we have a limited quantity.

·     Teams will get $6 for every $20 ticket sold and $10 for every $35 ticket sold.

·     Please also note that the tickets will have to be paid for before they can be picked up at the local office. We cannot release them before payment is received.

·     BACK AGAIN THIS YEAR: You can pay for your tickets online as an option when the website goes live. Please utilize this option when possible (you are also able to pay online for some tickets and reserve additional tickets in the same transaction if you choose to do so)

·     NEW THIS YEAR: The first 25 people to purchase 25 or more tickets ONLINE will receive 2 FREE tickets to a weekday game in April or May!! 1 per customer, must pay online to qualify, reservations for tickets do not qualify.

·     Once you reserve tickets, you will receive a confirmation email. Please DO NOT submit an order right away, the confirmation email might take a little bit to arrive. We do not want duplicate orders coming through as that happened MANY times last year. 

·     Tickets will not be available for pick up until the end of March, so please be patient as we wait to receive them from the Cardinals and manually fill the orders in office. 

·     Day of event flyer and details should be coming shortly! 

If you have any questions, please let me know! I look forward to another great year of fundraising and partnership with the St. Louis Cardinals with you all! Thank you so much!
