4.22.07: Walkin' in Memphis

On Friday, March 30th and Saturday, March 31st, the Pujols Family Foundation had representation in Memphis, TN, at the AutoZone Stadium for two Cardinal games.

Friday night, the Foundation provided information to over 16,000 fans who watched the St. Louis Cardinals play their AAA affiliate team, the Memphis Redbirds. Flyers, brochures and updates were provided to fans on the Foundation's latest work, including what Albert did in the off-season, and Albert and Deidre's visit to the Dominican Republic in January.

On Saturday night, the stage was a bit larger, as ESPN hosted the first ever nationally televised "Civil Rights" game, featuring the St. Louis Cardinals and the Cleveland Indians. This was both teams' final spring game before the regular season began, and everyone in attendance was treated to a great baseball game!

The Pujols Family Foundation made our first trip to St. Louis's sister city, Memphis, and the interest and support that we witnessed was incredible. We plan on making this an annual event and hope to again see the many friends the Foundation made in Memphis.

A special thanks to Norv, Tyler and Julianne Beffa for representing the Pujols Family Foundation well!
