Tickets are still available for the Friday, June 22, baseball matchup between the York Revolution and the Lancaster Barnstormers at Sovereign Bank Stadium in York, Pa.

The purchase price includes the buffet, the baseball game and a T-shirt, and youth tickets include a playground wristband.
To purchase tickets, contact Colin Cameron at 717-801-4498 or ccameron@yorkrevolution.com. Contact Susan Boyer at 717-227-0414 or susannboy@hotmail.com with questions about the event. This event is sponsored by the York County Chapter of the Penn State Alumni Association.
The Pay it Forward Scholarship is a new opportunity for alumni and friends to combine their efforts and change the lives of talented students. The scholarship places a high value on heritage, making it one of the most important considerations for students to receive support. A preference will be given to returning generations, immediate family members of alumni,and students who are first in their families to attend college.
For more information on this scholarship and how to contribute outside of attending the baseball fundraiser, contact Di Hershey or Iona Colon at the Penn State York Office of Development at 717-771-4127 or online at give2york@psu.edu.
