Harrisburg Senators News Release


For the second consecutive season the Senators are looking for their two biggest young fans to be their Klubhouse Kids. These two lucky youngsters will receive VIP treatment throughout the exciting 2009 season. Tryouts this year are on Saturday, February 14 from 11am until 2pm at the Harrisburg Mall.

Two kids, one boy and one girl, will be selected by a panel of celebrity judges. Each youngster will be required to sing, or speak, Take Me Out to the Ballgame (listed below). The prospective youngsters should be Senators fans that enjoy coming to Commerce Bank Park, but do not need to be baseball players to win. They can be as creative as they want with Take Me Out to the Ballgame and should feel free to dress in their favorite Senators gear or baseball outfits. Here are the words to Take Me Out to the Ballgame:

Take me out to the ball game, Take me out with the crowd; Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack, I don't care if I never get back. Let me root, root, root for the home team, If they don't win, it's a shame. For it's one, two, three strikes, you're out, At the old ball game.

As a word of caution, the winners aren't just winning a talent contest but will be expected to participate throughout the 2009 season as the leaders of the Senators Kid's club. Each Sunday during the 2009 season is a Kid's Club Day along with selected other games throughout the season. The winning kids won't be required to be at all of these games, but are encouraged to be at as many as possible. There are some great benefits for the winners and they include:

- A personalized Senators Jersey

- Free admission to each Senators home game for the entire 2009 season

- Appearance in a Senators TV commercial

- A page on the Klubhouse Kids in the 2009 program

- Opportunities to throw out the first pitch throughout the 2009 season

- Head of the Kids Club for the 2009 season

- Be a part of the pre-game video montage shown prior to each game during the 2009 season

- Opportunity to meet the 2009 Senators

"The two Klubhouse Kids were a great addition to the Senators and Commerce Bank Park in 2008," according to Director of Community Relations Emily Winslow, "they were always cheering for the Senators at games and really showed us that they truly were two of the Senators biggest fans. We look forward to finding two new kids that will bring the same or even more enthusiasm to the ballpark for 2009."

We expect this to be very popular so to sign-up your kids please contact Emily Winslow by phoning 717-231-4449 or via email at ewinslow@senatorsbaseball.com. There is more information available on the Senators website at www.senatorsbaseball.com. The deadline to sign-up for the Klubhouse Kids is Thursday, February 12 by 5:00pm.
