"President Carter has done more in his post-presidency to help other people across the country and around the world than any other President in United States history. A relaxing evening in the Owner's Suite at Four Winds Field is our humble way of thanking him for bringing the 2018 Carter Work Project to this community."
"I'm happy we can do this for the President and First Lady," added Joe Hart, President of the South Bend Cubs. "They are an amazing couple with close ties to this community. Our hope is that fans come from fifty miles around to help us thank them for bringing the Carter Work Project here."
