Letter to the Isotopes

To Whom It May Concern:
Today I attended the Making Strides game. I have attended this game all four years and love it. I love the 'Topes and please know that I will still continue to come to games. However, I felt it necessary to bring my horrifying experience to your attention.
With me at the game I had my 5 year old girl and 2 year old boy. When I told them they could run around the bases after the game, they were so excited. I have never let my kids do it before so I was unaware of the rules or procedures. I just followed everyone else to lead my kids to the bottom. When I got down there, my kids took off but the guy stopped me and ad no parents were allowed. "Okay," I said, "what about my little one?" He told me I could meet him at the end. I kept asking if someone was going to escort him and he just kept blowing me off. I started hauling butt to the other side and could see my kids almost finishing running the bases. When I got to the pick up station, I couldn't find them anywhere. I panicked. I know they had made it around the bases but I couldn't see after that because of all the people. After a few minutes I decided to run down the stairs and down there is where I found them, waiting with my brother. I was so scared.

I'm sure you have good reasons why the parents aren't allowed on the field, and that's fine, and I can understand things are chaotic but from a parents point of view that was horrifying. This will not hinder me from coming to games, or even letting them run the bases. I know what to expect now but the staff should probably be a little more empathetic when there are parents and little kids involves.

Thank you for taking the time to read my concerns and "Go Isotopes!"

Sincerely,
Sabrina Jane Gordon
