DAYTON, OH-Thousands of area fourth and fifth grade students will descend on Fifth Third Field this Saturday, June 14, from 10 am to 12:30 pm when the Dayton Dragons host "MVP Field Day." The students from Clark, Greene and Montgomery Counties were all recognized by their teachers through the "Dragons MVP Program" as having done something extraordinary inside or outside of the classroom this school year.

The Dragons MVP program provides students, who are recognized by their teachers, with a unique opportunity to attend this special event where they will have a chance to meet the 2014 Dayton Dragons and enjoy a day of fun activities at Fifth Third Field. Among the activities scheduled are inflatable games, carnival games, mascots, complimentary ballpark snacks and a special treat from Bob Evans, a free team poster, "baseball skills" stations with the Dragons players, and an autograph session.
