3rd annual ‘Home Run for Health’ planned for April 18

Public health agencies are stepping up to the plate once again, inviting Inland Empire residents to hit a “Home Run for Health” on April 18 when the Inland Empire 66ers battle the Lake Elsinore Storm at San Manuel Stadium, located at 280 South E Street in San Bernardino.

“This is one of our favorite events of the year. We get to share our many programs and services and highlight how living an active lifestyle can improve your health and wellness, all while enjoying an evening at the ballpark ,” said Trudy Raymundo, San Bernardino County Department of Public Health Director.

The San Bernardino County Department of Public Health, the California Health Collaborative and Riverside University Health System – Public Health have teamed up to share positive health messages with fans as they enjoy the evening watching the baseball game among family, friends and co-workers.

Fans may pick up free vouchers while supplies last for free admission to the April 18 game. One voucher can be redeemed for two tickets and families are limited to three vouchers, for six tickets total. Parking is $7 per vehicle.

“Last year we packed the entire park for a sell-out crowd, so we want to fill up the stadium again. The best thing about it is that we get to share information about our programs with the public we serve,” said Evi Hernandez, California Health Collaborative, Senior Director of Programs.
