Salem Red Sox News Release
SALEM, Va. - The Salem Red Sox are excited to announce STEAM Night (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) presented by Branch Group, set for Friday, August 5th at Carilion Clinic Field. STEAM Night, one of more than 30 promotional nights scheduled for the 2022 season, will host a variety of programming elements including interactive booths along the concourse, STEAM educational material displayed throughout the game, an exclusive VIP experience with the Mascot Hall of Fame and more.
"Branch Group is proud to be a part of STEAM night and introduce kids to a new world of possibilities often not experienced in the classroom or in their daily lives," said Kenna Smith, Branch Group Talent Acquisition Manager. "STEAM education is crucial to the future of the construction industry, and we are dedicated to raising the next generation of builders."
Join the Salem Red Sox as the stadium turns into a classroom as the concourse will be filled with interactive displays from various businesses and organizations in STEAM-related fields. Additionally, Tyler's Amazing Balancing Act will be in attendance featuring his unique, high-energy performance.
The Mascot Hall of Fame, located in Whiting, Indiana, is a one-of-a-kind children's activity museum equally rooted in STEAM education principles and sport mascot entertainment. The Hall of Fame is taking the museum on the road and joining the Salem Red Sox to share with fans how STEAM is everywhere they look, even in the mascot they love and support, Mugsy.
The Mascot Hall of Fame will be hosting an exclusive in-person, totally interactive, pre-game VIP event at Carilion Clinic Field. The entire family is invited to participate during the 45 minute presentation. Programming is designed for children ages 8-18. This VIP experience will take place from 5:30-6:15p, prior to first pitch slated for 7:05p as the Salem Red Sox host the Myrtle Beach Pelicans. This VIP STEAM event is free, but does require registration. Space is very limited.
"We are very excited to host the first STEAM Night at Salem Memorial Ballpark and our partnership with the Mascot Hall of Fame," said Blair Hoke, Salem Red Sox Assistant General Manager. "Our team continues to look for programming appropriate for fans of all ages that compliments the game of baseball and Salem's initiative to provide, safe, affordable, family-entertainment. We look forward to welcoming fans of STEAM-related fields to a great night at the ballpark."
