Let's go to a ballgame!

Whether you love baseball or not, you’re sure to be entertained by the Kansas City T-Bones, our local independent baseball team.

Members of Immanuel will be journeying out to Community America Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan., to see the T-Bones take on the Rockford RiverHawks on Saturday, Aug. 14. Tailgating starts at 5 p.m., with the first pitch at 7:05 p.m.

It’s Salute to Heroes Night at the T-Bones, with police, fire, ambulance and military equipment on display and a special pre-game ceremony. Plus, there’s a back-to-school giveaway for the first 5,000 through the gate, and post-game fireworks.

Tickets are $11 per person and can be purchased at church, or reserved by calling the church office at 816-931-8483. Parking is free at the ballpark.

Hot dogs and paper goods will be supplied for the tailgate party; bring a side dish to share, lawn chairs and beverages.
