Camarillo, CA - CSU Channel Islands (CI) invites community friends, alumni, students and employees to make its 11th Annual Alumni & Friends Dodger Day the loudest and proudest ever, as the Dodgers take on the Arizona Diamondbacks Saturday, Sept. 6.

Dodger Day – CI’s largest signature alumni event – is expected to draw a record crowd of over 1,000 CI supporters to Dodger Stadium for a fun day of baseball and bonding. Guests can also cheer on Ventura County Fire Chief Mark Lorenzen as he throws out the ceremonial first pitch. CI chose Lorenzen as its guest of honor in gratitude and tribute to all the firefighters who protected the campus and community during the May 2013 Springs Fire.

For the cost of admission, participants will enjoy commemorative T-shirts, giveaways and prizes, and deluxe round-trip bus transportation between CI and Dodger Stadium.

Alumni & Friends Dodger Day is open to the public. Proceeds benefit the Alumni & Friends Association endowed student scholarship fund. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis at prices ranging from $29 to $59 per person, and can be purchased at http://go.csuci.edu/DodgerDay.

Dodger Day is sponsored by Pacific Oaks Federal Credit Union, the event’s Grand Slam Sponsor; Ventura County Star, Coffee News, and Coastal Embroidery.
