th annual Jacksonville Night at Busch will be held on Thursday, July 22
nd with the first pitch set for 6:15 pm.
Tickets are $40.00 per seat and are again grouped in the Right Field Box seats in sections 128 through 131, a spot that has come to be known as “The Jacksonville Corner.” Shelley Singleton, organizer of the event says this year’s event is bigger and better than ever.
“
That’s kind of our little corner of the stadium and this year it’s really special too because we had an opportunity to invite a group down to sing, and we’ve never done that before. So the JHS Choir will be performing on the field right there in the right-field corner. So they will be right close and singing right to the Jacksonville group and the kids are just super excited to be able to sing God

The sounds of the old ballpark filled the Congregational Church in Jacksonville Tuesday afternoon as the Jacksonville High School Madrigal Choir sang Take Me Out to the Ballgame to promote their addition to Jacksonville Night at Busch Stadium.
Shelly Singleton says for the last four years the surrounding Jacksonville area has purchased so many tickets for the annual event, they earned the right to throw out the first pitch.
