Victoria, BC – The best school field trip in the City is back again and the Victoria HarbourCats and our friends at Mayfair Optometric Clinic would like to invite all elementary, middle and high schools in Greater Victoria to come and have some fun again and join us at the ballpark for our seventh annual School Spirit Game!
THURSDAY, JUNE 13, 2024 – 11:00 AM, vs. NANAIMO NIGHTOWLS
The response to this event is always incredible, with nearly 3,000 plus students and teachers taking part each season. In fact our 2022 and 2023 games were the highest attended games during those seasons!
“This year will be no different,” says HarbourCats General Manager Christian Stewart. “I already have about 1500 students and teachers that have contacted me to book, once they saw the game on our schedule last November! So if you are planning to come to the game, don’t hesitate to reserve your space as soon as possible, as numbers will be limited.”
The HarbourCats School Spirit Game is a fun, low-cost attendance option for a great June field trip, for classrooms or for the entire school! Just $7.00 per attendee, and like last year, the start time for the game is 11:00am to allow students and faculty to enjoy more of the game.
“Dr. Taylor and Mayfair Optometric Clinic are proud participants in School Spirit Day,” said Mary Lou Newbold, CEO of the company. “As much as 80% of a child’s learning is through vision. Working with the HarbourCats and School Spirit Day is a great way to remind parents and teachers of the importance of kids getting annual eye exams. It’s a really fun day for everyone and we LOOK forward to this game every year!”
