We hope you have your tickets for the 6:15 p.m. Cubs-Cards game on May 30, 2026 in Busch Stadium in St. Louis because it is Rotary Family Day at the Ball Park. If you don't have tickets, you can still score $60 tickets through the Rotary District 6460 Website. Please join us to observe the long-time rivalry between the cards and cubs and their fans in the flesh and celebrate Rotary. We always have fun at these games.
The Sunrise Rotary Club has arranged for a round-trip bus from Springfield to St. Louis. You should have already paid for your seat on the bus. Mr. Baseball (Rod Buffington) says all the seats are taken. This bus will leave from the parking lot of the Methodist Conference Center (Illinois Great Rivers Conference Center), 5900 S. Second St., Springfield, IL 62711. It will be ready for boarding at 1:45 p.m. and will depart promptly at 2:15 p.m. It will not wait for stragglers. We will arrive at Busch Stadium early enough for you to have dinner inside or outside the stadium. This information is repeated in the Upcoming Programs and Events section of this Newsletter.
Bill Sturm is arranging for a different bus that will leave from a different venue in Springfield later in the afternoon. If you are on Bill's bus then you need to be certain that you have the details for that bus.
We hope to see you at Rotary Family Day at the Ball Park! Please remember that the proceeds from ticket sales support our Rotary District's Literacy Grants!
