Re: Robots in the D
We just purchased a block of 64 tickets for the game. They are left-field tickets with an obstructed vew -- but the only obstruction is the skinny yellow foul pole. Let Karen Barnhart (karenbarnhart@twmi.rr.com) know ASAP if you need any tickets, they are $15. Aside from that group, there are NO groups or pairs of tickets left at ANY price level in the whole park, only single tickets.
FYI, robotics groups purchased over 1,000 tickets which are located in sections 144-149, 210-218, 334-336, and 338-344. You are welcome to buy single tickets near those sections from the Tigers website. Possibly pairs or groups of tickets are also available from third parties. |

Re: Robots in the D
We had a small run of navy blue shirts made with a Robots in the D logo on the front, and a sponsor list on the back for the game. Many people asked about them, so we are making them available for anyone to order at $12 each. Please use the order form at http://frogforce503.org/sites/defaul...torderform.pdf
Orders due September 4. Questions to frogforce503@gmail.com. |
