July 10th Mariners Game

Published by parkhr under AAAW Events

We have tickets in the first level, just above the left field wall, for the game versus the New York Yankees. You buy the ticket and we’ll provide the food (all you can eat hamburgers, hot dogs, regular fries, popcorn and cookies) and drinks (water and sodas)…tickets are $34 each and you get a value of over $55!

We have the 300 level landing above left field for our dining area (by the BBQ area), starting when the gates open at 5:10 pm–great views of the city, the sound and the field, where we can watch batting practice while we eat some great ballpark fare! As the game gets ready to start at 7:10 pm, we will head down to our seats on the 100 level. Come early for food and drinks and stay for the game to cheer the Mariners.

If you are KIDS campers, add your number of tickets to your registration sheet we’ll get you tickets during camp!
