Express to Host Pokemon Go Event Sunday

ROUND ROCK, Texas - Gotta catch 'em all - including those hiding on the field at Dell Diamond! This Sunday, July 17 the Round Rock Express are opening the gates early at Dell Diamond for fans to play Pokemon Go on the field before the E-Train takes on the Sacramento River Cats.

Using the online code "pokemon" fans can purchase $11 infield reserved or $5 lawn tickets. The special Pokemon Go ticket will allow fans entrance to Dell Diamond through a gate at home plate beginning at 4:45 p.m. The outfield will be opened for Pokemon trainers from 5:00 - 6:00 p.m. Tickets are only available online using the discount code. Fans can purchase tickets here.

A portion of ticket sales will go to benefit Jana's House, a new home for orphaned girls at the Family Legacy Mission's Tree of Life Children's Village in Zambia that is set to be dedicated later this year in honor of Jana Almendarez. Construction on the house is expected to begin in August and be completed by December. The Almendarez and Ryan families will be in Zambia to dedicate the house in Jana's memory. The Tree of Life Children's Village works to rescue children from extreme cases of abuse and poverty in the region.

Donations towards Jana's House are accepted online through this link. The Express will host additional fundraisers during select home games, including the annual Shirt-Off-Their-Back raffle during Fan Appreciation Weekend in September. Details on those auctions and raffles will be announced at a later date.

Single game tickets are available along with season ticket packages and group discounts. For more information on the Express, visit www.RoundRockExpress.com or call (512) 255-2255. Keep up with the Express on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter!
