TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL GAME- September 15


The tradition for St. John Lutheran School going to a yearly Indianapolis Indians game will be returning but this year in the fall on Wednesday, September 15 when 1st through 8th grades will be attending an Indianapolis Indians Minor League baseball game vs. the St. Paul Saints. We will be busing down to Victory Field for this 12:05 PM home game. There will be a relaxed dress code for the day. Please remember you are still representing St. John so make sure all shirts are appropriate as well as shorts. If your child’s teacher would like your child to wear something particular, they will reach out to you.
