Join TBH for a summer afternoon of minor league baseball in an outing to see the Tacoma Rainiers take on the Oklahoma City Dodgers on Sunday, August 13 at 1:35 p.m.! And after the game, we will have a special opportunity to meet with Rainiers pitcher Rob Kaminsky, who joined the Mariners organization in 2022. A Jewish ball player originally from New Jersey, Kaminsky also played for Team Israel in the 2023 World Baseball Classic.
Tickets are $15.45 each and include a seat and concessions. TBH has a total 30 tickets are available and will be sold on a first come first serve basis.
The game is at Cheney Stadium in Tacoma. For more information, directions and parking information, visit https://www.milb.com/tacoma/ballpark/cheney-stadium Please note, TBH will not be providing transportation to and from the game, though we could possibly arrange carpooling once we know who is in our group. Thanks to Oscar Soule for making arrangements for the group tickets and the visit with Rob Kaminsky!
The front main access doors are unavailable for several weeks. We will be using the alley door as our primary entrance door. See the map.
Please note this entrance is not fully accessible as there are 4 stairs from the alley door down through to the social hall, though it is the better option of our two alternative entrances. We apologize for the inconvenience and recognize this is temporary based on our construction schedule. We hope to have full accessibility restored as soon as possible. If you have access needs, please reach out to Kayla.
For building entry during events and while staff are in the office, please ring the doorbell by the alley door and/or call 360-754-8519.
For keycard and phone app users, the alley door has the same keyed entry and alarm set up as the front doors. You do not need to use the readers near the main doors, the back door readers function the same.
