Good evening all!
Once again, we will be joining the T21 Club and neighboring counties for our annual Down Syndrome Awareness Day at the Phillies. The Phillies will be hosting our groups on Sunday May 3rd a 2:05PM start versus the Colorado Rockies. Based on positive feedback from last year’s game we will once again be offering the option of a game ticket only or game ticket / pregame tent party.
Date: Sunday, May 3rd
Game: Phillies v. Colorado Rockies
Game Time: 2:05pm
Seats: Section 206 or 207
(Handicap Accessible Seating is available).
For those who braved the elements last year and attended the pre-game party it was a very entertaining experience.
With that said let me explain our two options:
Option 1
Purchase a Game Ticket for $38.00.
Game ticket only in section 206 or 207. Children 2 and under are free.
Option 2
Game Ticket / Pregame Tent Party. Game Seats in 206 or 207
$78.00 for 11 years old to adult
$58.00 for 6 – 10 years old
$38.00 for 3 -5 years old with parent who purchased a $78.00 ticket
Ages 2 and under are free
The pre-game tent party will be from 12:00pm – 1:30pm and will include Food & Soft beverage, great music and dancing, face painters, and a Phillies gift item.
Commemorative tee-shirts will be available on a first come first serve basis.
Phillies Mother’s Day Gift
The Phillies are honoring all women at this game with a Mother’s Day appreciation gift upon entering the ballpark.
We do have a limited number of accessible seats available.
Tickets must be ordered and paid for by March 31st.
You can order by emailing [email protected] or call me at 484-682-5550. Please let me know which option you are choosing and provide a phone number when ordering by email.

Proceeds of the race will benefit The Delaware County Down Syndrome Interest Group (DSIG). DSIG is a 501(c) non-profit organization that was formed in 1990 by a group of families touched by Down Syndrome in Delaware County. They strive to promote professional and public awareness and encourage inclusion for those with Down Syndrome. Their goals are to reach out to expectant and new parents of a child with Down Syndrome, to be supportive of and provide social interaction for people with Down Syndrome, their families, friends and acquaintances, to aid and challenge each family to constantly evaluate and re-think how new ideas, information and technology may help or affect their child with Down Syndrome and to educate the general public by assisting members of our community in learning to see people with disabilities as people, not as their disability.
