There is still time for baseball aficionados to vie for the chance to fulfill a popular bucket list item. Garland ISD’s Education Foundation is auctioning the ceremonial first pitch before the Texas Rangers face the Los Angeles Angels April 13 at Globe Life Park in Arlington.
This special act will also commence Garland ISD Night, which is an annual event that gifts one dollar from each ticket sold to GISD. 2015 Campus Teachers of the Year will be given complimentary tickets and recognized at this game, as well.
The current first pitch bid is $355. To get in on the action, email an offer to Education Foundation secretary Pam Parks at pkparks@garlandisd.net before noon Wednesday, April 8. The lucky winner will be announced later that day.
All proceeds from this campaign will benefit the youth of Garland, Rowlett and Sachse. The Garland ISD Education Foundation is a nonprofit organization that generates and distributes resources to enrich teaching and learning throughout the district.
