This year we have 2 outings to Akron Aeros' games. Register for one or both.
Friday May 8 and Sunday June 28

Name: _________________________________

Phone number_____________________________

Friday May 8 there will be fireworks following the game. We have also made arrangements for you to get a hot dog, soda and popcorn at this game. The tickets only would have been $6 per person, the ticket with the food is only $10. I had to choose all or nothing for this game, so they are making up all of the tickets to include the food. Cost will be $10.00 for this evening out.

We still have the option of choosing food or no food for the June 28 game. That game is on a Sunday afternoon.

I need to know the number of gluten free hot dogs in advance so I can purchase the buns and have them to the stadium several days before the game.

Friday, May 8 @ $10.00 each, includes game entry, hot dog, soda and popcorn
