Check the schedule for this season's games. Many Sunday night games start at 5:05 making it easy to enjoy America's favorite pastime with the whole family.

Check out the Champ Kid's Club if you are interested in special events (Run the bases, ice cream socials, Player Autograph sessions, special Discounts, etc...)

You can also also host your child's birthday party at the ballpark for $15/child.

 

PARKING SHUTTLE UPDATE (*the onsite lot ususally fills up by 6:15)

The Lake Monsters would like to remind fans that the free shuttle service for off-site parking to the ballpark this year departs from the Gutterson Fieldhouse parking garage and not the Water Tower lot from years past. This is due to a construction project at the water tower lot and the Lake Monsters would like to apologize for the inconvenience.

Please park in the parking garage at Gutterson to board the shuttle to the park. The shuttle starts runs at 5:00pm for 7:05pm games and 3:00pm for 5:05pm games.

"Take me out to a ballgame!" That is what we often hear from our kids. And if you do as well, then look no further than a Lake Monsters Game. This stadium gives you an almost nostalgic feeling about America's favorite pastime. This is a great family outing that hits it out of the park!

There are ample things to see and do to keep kids of all ages entertained. Inside the park there is the on-field, change of innings entertainment. It can be anything from a Frisbee catching dog act, to a gigantic teddy bear sling shot contest. Promo foam hands/t-shirts are always being tossed into the crowd. Champ is constantly around leading the kids in sing-a-longs. Off the field there is fast pitch, a jumpy house, autograph signing, and more. Check the promo schedule on their web site, there is usually a giveaway or something cool going on at each game.

The food choices are pretty standard with a few exceptions...I did see a Chicken Caesar Salad. And new to the line up this year is Fried Dough! Now although the ticket prices relatively low, unless you can get away with not buying or doing anything once you're inside the ballpark (good luck with that!), don't forget to bring some cash. The souvenirs, pizza ($4), Popcorn ($3), pretzel ($3.25), bottled water ($2.50), Hot Dog ($3) will all add up....more

One of my favorite summer things to do is to take the kids to Centennial for a ballgame. The Sunday afternoon games are perfect for kids. Champ is there running around on his ATV and signing autographs. There are a few fun activities like guess the speed of your fastball and win a mini bat. The food is what you would expect...pizza, hot dogs, sausage, burgers, fries, etc. And oh yeah, there's a ballgame to watch. They do a decent job of having a fun activity on the field between innings to keep everyone entertained. If you want to avoid the sun on hot days, sit behind homeplate (under the canopy) or down the 3rd baseline. You will need to arrive early to get a parking spot close to the field, otherwise you park over by the hospital and take a bus. The bus is OK, not a big deal. Might want to leave a bit early to miss the rush. Overall, a great event and value....more
