Even if you’ve never thrown a baseball or swung a bat, you probably have at least one fond memory of watching a baseball game growing up. It’s one of the most affordable ways for families – local + visiting, superfans + casual observers – to spend time together rooting for the home team and enjoying ballpark snacks.

So, if you’re planning to bring your family to the ballpark this season (you can buy individual tickets now), here are some #ProTips for families + fun perks for kids:

✔ Opening Night (Thursday, April 4): time to get into the spirit. If you have little ones under 12, sign them up for the Fireflies Kids Club for discounts + opportunities like new member swag and 20% off Fireflies Summer Baseball Clinics. Plus, they can run out some energy with unlimited play time at the SCU Kids Zone with the Neon Membership ($25).

✔ Monday, June 10 is a double whammy: Kids Eat Free + Kid’s Club Takeover. Members of the Kids Club will have the chance to participate in different aspects of the game throughout the night, like Field of Dreams and Junior PA Announcer.

✔ June 28 is Mason’s birthday and Kids Club members will have 2 free reserved tickets to join in the fun. 🎈If you’re in the club, the fun doesn’t stop when baseball season ends – Mason will also send your child a card for their birthday, and members get early access to offseason events like Trick-or-Treating with Mason and Breakfast with Santa.

✔ Bonus for paw-rents: The Fireflies launched Mason's K9 Klub – sign your fur child up for their very own Fireflies dog tag + a ticket for you to every Trash the Poop Wag-Along Wednesday.
