Interested in a birthday bash with the Baysox?
Would you like to celebrate your child's birthday with Louie, the mascot of the Double-A Bowie Baysox?
The Baysox will feature two different birthday packages for fans during the 2009 season.
The Grand Slam Birthday Bash includes 10 general admission tickets, as well as a section of the birthday party deck at Prince George's Stadium. Guests will receive a one-hour buffet that includes hot dogs, chicken nuggets, potato chips, ice cream and drinks. The Baysox will also provide 10 souvenir gifts -- one for each guest -- and unlimited access to the Kids Park. The birthday child also will announce one batter to the crowd and receive an exclusive tour. Finally, fans at the game will sing Happy Birthday as the birthday child stands on top of the dugout. This package is available for $239. Additional tickets can be purchased for $22 each.
The Bullpen Buddies Birthday Party, which includes 10 lower reserved tickets near the Baysox dugout and 30 game tickets to the Kids Park, is available for $159. If you need more tickets to the game, they can be purchased for $14 apiece. Only the birthday child will receive a complimentary souvenir as part of this package. The child also will receive an exclusive tour, an opportunity to announce one batter during the game and the chance to stand on top of the dugout as the crowd sings Happy Birthday.
You must book the party in advance, and they are subject to availability. Contact Vince Riggs by phone at 301-464-4885 or by e-mail at vriggs@baysox.com in order to reserve your space.
If that's not enough, the team is giving away a Grand Slam Birthday Bash to one child (ages 3 to 12). In order to enter the contest, send an e-mail to the Baysox (louie@baysox.com) with "Birthday Bash Contest" in the subject line. Be sure to include the child's name, a parent or guardian's name, the child's birthday and a daytime phone number.
The Baysox will only accept one entry per child, and all entries must be received by 11:59 p.m. on April 6. For complete contest rules and details, visit the team's Web site.
