PMP at GABP

PMP at GABP

Yesterday, Purple Monkey Project was honored to be welcomed to Great American Ball Park for an unforgettable day! We would like to extend a big thank you to Shaumia Turner and the entire Cincinnati Reds organization for their dedication to making our days at GABP flawless and welcoming.

We had our largest PMP crowd yet—nearly 300 strong! Pregame festivities included a beautiful rendition of the National Anthem by Fairfield Show Choirs, and Angela had the honor of delivering the game ball to the mound.

During the 7th inning stretch, “God Bless America” was performed by Courtney McDonald, Jayden Grant, Avary Vanoss, Alayla Vanoss, and Carter McCabe.One of the true highlights of the day was honoring our very own Hometown Hero, Grappa (Ron) Vanoss. Thank you for your service, Sgt. Ron Vanoss.

Thank you to everyone who came out and to those who continue to support us and our mission.
