Cardinal Game Details!
Instructions for “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” Singers and Parents
Date: Thursday, September 28th
Game Time: 6:15 vs. Cubs
Student/Family Arrival - When students arrive, they may enter the stadium and head straight
to their seats, get food, visit with friends. Singers must be accompanied by an
adult/guardian/family member. West Middle is not responsible for any singers at this time.
Singers may sit with their family/friends in their seats until the 5th inning.
5th Inning - At the top of the 5th Inning, students need to be in their seats, ready to follow Ms.
Feste and Mrs. Broyles from our seats in the Left Field Loge to the ramp at Gate 1. It is crucial
that students stay with the group, we will be walking around a large portion of the stadium in
order to get to our performance area. Parents, friends and other fan club members can stay in
their seats. If you do not line up and walk down with us, you cannot perform. Please be ready
and aware.
Warm-Up - Ms. Feste & Mrs. Broyles will lead warm-up’s and a run through in the tunnel near
the entrance to the field. During this time, students must be attentive and ready to perform. The
tunnel area amplifies our voices, so even if we are speaking, it sounds like we are shouting.
Please be flexible and ready to warm-up or walk on the field.
Top of the 7th- Our Cardinals Representative will lead us to the wagon gate, they will wait for
the 3rd out. It is important for the group to remain silent while we wait for the 3rd out. Singers
need to remember that the game is in progress as we are waiting. Any students that fail to
remain silent and respectful will not perform . As soon as the 3rd out is called, the wagon gates
will swing open. The group must walk quickly onto the field and listen quietly for the
introduction. We will begin singing right after. We will perform from right field.
After our performance - After we perform, stand still, we will take a quick picture. We must exit
quickly and quietly as the game will resume after our performance. At this time, Ms. Feste &
Mrs. Broyles will lead the group back to the left field pavilion. You must stay with the group.
When we have returned to our seats, students may leave with their families or stay for the rest
of the game. Students must have adult supervision from an accompanying
parent/guardian/adult while sitting in the seats.
