Evan and Lauren's Cool Blog: 7/23/13: Futures at Fenway Giveaway

CONTEST CLOSED: CONGRATULATIONS BROOKE FOR WINNING!
I have a really quick flash giveaway. You have till July 25th at midnight to enter to win 4 tickets to Futures at Fenway on July 27th with first pitch at noon. It is a wonderful way to take the kids to Fenway Park at an affordable price. Plus see a Kidz Bop Concert! You can read my post from last year here or my coverage here of how Fenway Park is Family Friendly.

Details for this year's event:

Families across New England will have the chance to see Major League Baseball stars of tomorrow when the 8^th annual “Futures at Fenway presented by Xfinity” returns to Fenway Park on Saturday, July 27. Family-friendly ticket and concession prices along with kid-friendly activities and entertainment highlight the day of minor league fun.

This year's event invites fans to bring their dogs to the ballpark and features a post-game performance by the popular kids group “The KIDZ BOP Kids.” We saw them last year at the Life is Good Festival and they are great.

After a one year absence from the event, Boston’s Double-A affiliate, the Portland Sea Dogs, will make their fourth appearance at Futures at Fenway, taking on the Harrisburg Senators, the Double-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals. Fenway Park gates will open at 11 a.m. for the noon game.

After the game, The KIDZ BOP Kids, a group of five kids from across the country that dance and sing today’s biggest hits, will perform. KIDZ BOP is the number one music brand for children ages 5-12 in the U.S. and have been named “#1 Kids’ Artists of the Year” for the third consecutive year by Billboard.

For the first time at Fenway Park, fans will have a chance to bring their dogs to the ballpark. Designated sections of the seating bowl will be available to owners and their pets where rest areas, water bowls, and activities will be provided. There will also be a photo station for dogs and their owners and the opportunity to participate in a pre-game dog parade around the warning track.

Concessions are also discounted. Hot Dogs were discounted to $2.50 from $5 and drinks only $2.50. Be aware though that adult drinks are not discounted so you will still pay over $8 for a beer. You could also sign the kids up for Red Sox Nation.

There are also little games in between innings also to keep the kids entertained. Plus there are on-field promotions, and autograph sessions with the stars. Plus in the concourse there were people making balloon animals, games for the kids, face painters and other fun things to keep the kids entertained.
