Play Ball Gala – Tomorrow – Saturday, April 22
With T minus 2 days before the big game we have been actively monitoring the weather report and working closely with the Coors Field team to identify alternatives to ensure everyone’s comfort and ability to enjoy the entire event. Please regularly check your spam folder for updates regarding the gala.
That said, we have made the decision to relocate the dinner and programming portion of the evening to the club level of Coors Field. Cocktail hour will be held from 5pm-6pm on the concourse as originally planned, followed immediately by video viewing. We will then move to the enclosed club level for the remainder of the evening. We encourage everyone to dress accordingly for the cocktail hour – think coats, jackets and the like for the hour outside – all of which can be shed immediately when arriving upstairs. We’re still holding steady on the “baseball chic with your favorite sneaks” – both of which will look great with a coat and a cocktail.
You won’t see a rain delay on this game – gates open at 5pm!
Please don’t forget to visit the website for bidding on the home and away experiences, as well as purchasing parties and 7th inning stretch raffle opportunities for faculty and staff. All items available for purchase on the website will close on Saturday at 7pm.
We cannot wait to dance around the diamond with all of you on Saturday night!

St Vincent de Paul Parish Opportunties
Save the Date for June 19-23, 2023! Join us for VBS BABYLON: Daniel’s Courage in Captivity. Families step back in time to Babylon, where we’ll explore what life was like for Daniel and his friends, as captives in a strange land. You’ll craft cool projects in the Marketplace, laugh as you play Bible-times games, visit with Daniel in Bible Adventures, and sing lots of catchy-songs along the way with your new friends! Keep an eye out for registration details in April for your children entering K-5th grade in 2023. Middle school students can join the fun too as junior leaders.
Want to help make this amazing week happen? We need team leaders, environment creators, Bible-scene actors, snack masters, and prayer warriors! Whatever your age, talents, or experience, we want you to be a part of this amazing adventure for our children! Join us for a volunteer meeting on Wednesday March 29th at 8am in the Parish Office to learn more. Email emily@saintvincents.org
