Newark Bears News Release
Newark, NJ - Rooting for the home team is a given, but the Courtyard Newark Downtown decided to take things one step further by becoming the official hotel sponsor for the Newark Bears.
The Newark Bears, part of the Canadian American Association of Professional Baseball, play at the Bears & Eagles Riverfront Stadium, just minutes from this Essex County hotel, making the partnership convenient for both the team and fans. In addition to an impressive roster, the Bears' coaching staff includes some major league talent. Manager Garry Templeton is a three time MLB All Star who spent most of his career with the St. Louis Cardinals, and pitching coach Ralph Citarella was drafted by the Cardinals in the 1st round of the 1979 amateur draft.
As the official sponsor of the 2013 season, this Newark hotel near EWR Airport will host away teams and umpires, and offer discounted rates for fans. With regular-season home games through the end of August, local fans and out-of-town hotel guests have plenty of opportunity to cheer the Bears on to the playoffs.
Single-game tickets start as low as $10, and combined with a deal at this Newark hotel , visitors can celebrate summer without breaking the bank. In addition to Bears baseball, downtown Newark offers numerous activities for all interests. Catch major music acts at Prudential Center, classical performances by the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra or theater and other shows at the NJ Performing Arts Center. History and culture buffs will enjoy the Newark Museum and The New Jersey Historical Society, while Military Park and Turtle Back Zoo offer opportunities to get in tune with nature. Golfers are just a few miles away from two courses, but the Courtyard Newark Downtown offers its own option for active guests with a fitness center. After a day at the ballpark or the museum, enjoy a glass of wine or a delicious cup of coffee at The Bistro, located in the heart of the modern lobby.
