Pack the Park Benefiting KidPack

The Flying Tigers and KidPack will be collecting non perishable food and donations to support KidPack. KidPack raises food and money to supply Kidpacks to students in Polk County that do not know where their next meal will come from, as well as to those kids that are homeless and without proper nutrition. The schools in the area identify these kids, who remain nameless to KidPack, then in turn they get the packs to the schools on Friday's so the child has food to last them over the weekend when school meals are not accessible. There are thousands of kids here

locally that are in need. Our goal for "Pack the Park" is to raise $50,000 or 36,000 lbs of food. 100% of all food and money raised goes directly to the cause.

Tickets are available through KidPack for $8. Every ticket sold feeds one kid for a weekend. Tickets are good to any of the games between June 23rd and June 27th and are available by calling 863-272-7927.

Monday, June 25 vs. Jupiter Hammerheads (Marlins) @ 6:30 p.m. (Gates open at 5:30 p.m.)
