\nKids interested in “running the ballpark” can go to http:\/\/www.oroyals.com\/kids_ballpark.html<\/a> to submit their application. The Royals will draw names to select 15 kids. Another 15 kids will be selected at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 2, from those who register at the ballpark on that day.

\nUNMC community relations specialist Megan Addy said that all four university campuses will participate in activities throughout the night, and kids will perform various ballpark tasks, such as ticket-taking, serving concessions and doing public address announcing. <\/p>\n

First pitch for the Omaha Royals vs. Salt Lake Stingers game on Aug. 2 will be at 6:05 p.m. Stadium gates will open at 3 p.m.<\/p>\n

In addition to various activities, campus mascots will be on hand to entertain the youngsters. UNMC’s mascot will feature a “Lil’ Red” with a lab coat and goggles. Others will include Louie the Loper (UNK); Durango (UNO); and Lil’ Red (UNL).<\/p>\n

Employees interested in purchasing tickets should contact Community Relations Coordinator Ann Kraft at 559-6027 or akraft@unmc.edu by July 18. Payment is due on that date, and checks should be made payable to the Omaha Royals.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
