A HOME RUN for CSEA members

Throughout the summer, CSEA members were eligible to win tickets to minor league baseball games in the Long Island, Southern, Capital, Central and Western Regions. More than 3,500 CSEA members entered to win tickets and enjoy the games!

In June, Capital Region members could win tickets to see the Tri-City Valley Cats. On Sunday, July 18, Central Region members cheered on their hometown Syracuse Mets. On August 20, Western Region members were treated to the Rochester Red Wings. On August 26, Long Island Region members watched the Long Island Ducks. For the final CSEA baseball event of the season on Saturday, September 4, members from the Southern and Capital Regions got to see the Tri- City Valley Cats take on the Rockland Boulders in Pomona at Palisades Credit Union Park, a stadium maintained by CSEA members.
