Angels Game Details! Chili! Winners!

 

We Have Winners!

We have great news!  Eight lucky winners have been selected for the Batting Practice close-up at this Saturday’s “Angels Rotary Night to End Polio Now”!

 These lucky ticket holders are in “Group 1” and should meet at the Angel’s office at 3:40 p.m. to take the field for 20 to 25 minutes:

 “Group 2” should meet at the Angel’s office at 4:20 p.m.

 2.   From Orange Rotary- Craig Shipcott

 And: two youngsters from the Orangewood Home will have the chance to take the field!

No First Pitch, But Something Even Better!

These extra opportunities were offered to us by the Angels organization, which had to withdraw their “first pitch” offer.  (Too many good causes, too little time!)  However, the Angels have also added:

Angel Collectibles for Auction!

We now have two major collector items that any Angels fan would cherish.  These will be auctioned to the highest bidder with proceeds donated to The Rotary Foundation Gates Challenge Match to eliminate polio.  Don’t miss the chance to bid on:

  • A baseball autographed by Jered Weaver, top Angels pitcher, and
  • A baseball bat autographed by Hideki Matsui, last year’s World Series MVP!

Pre-game bids will be accepted and bidders do not have to attend the game to make a bid.  Just call John Burt at (714) 637-2685.

And one more thing…

There are still T-shirts available for purchase at the game!
