Wednesday night of our Annual Meeting will be unforgettable ⚾🔥
We’re taking over Citizens Bank Park—home of the Philadelphia Phillies—for a private, after-hours experience like no other. Think transportation, open bar, buffet dinner, behind-the-scenes stadium access, and batting cages inside one of baseball’s most iconic parks.
The Phillies will be home against the Yankees July 24–26 before heading on the road, so opportunities to catch them at home during our stay are limited.
So we didn’t just plan an event…
We took over the stadium. Just for you!
Guests are welcome and encouraged, but must be registered during your Annual Meeting registration by July 3. Don’t miss it!

The American flag has its own national standards to ensure the flag is treated with respect as a living symbol of the country. As we enter Memorial Day weekend, here is a quick guide for the proper display of the flag on Monday.
• From sunrise to noon, the flag is flown at half-staff, honoring those who gave their lives in service
• At noon, it is raised to full-staff through sunset, symbolizing national resilience and gratitude for living veterans
• If a flag cannot be lowered, a black streamer may be added to signify mourning
• The U.S. flag should always be displayed with the union (blue field) at the top
• When flown with other flags, the American flag is placed in the position of highest honor
• Many cemeteries mark graves with small flags—a quiet, collective measure of gratitude across the nation
May your long weekend be safe and enjoyable as we remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
