VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION

The Orioles have hosted over 5,000 military members for games at Camden Yards so far this season through a program called Veteran Tickets Foundation (Vet Tix), a non-profit organization that provides event tickets for military, veterans and their families. These tickets help build morale for soldiers from all military branches that may be preparing to deploy, assist returning soldiers in their adjustment to civilian life and provide a fun day at the ballpark for the families of those deployed.

WELCOME BACK VETERANS

Major League Baseball and the Orioles support Welcome Back Veterans, a program that addresses the needs of returning American veterans and their families. The Orioles, along with all other MLB teams, will wear special “Stars and Stripes” hats for their games on Memorial Day (May 30), Independence Day (July 4) and Patriot Day (September 11) to raise awareness for this worthy program. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of these hats will benefit Welcome Back Veterans. In addition, all teams playing on Memorial Day will pause at 3:00 p.m. to observe a Moment of Remembrance in honor of military members who have lost their lives.

For more information about any of these programs, fans should call 1-888-848-BIRD, visit www.orioles.com or contact their local ITT/Leisure Travel office.
