Given the challenges nurses have endured throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians wanted to recognize and show their appreciation for all their hard work during National Nurses Week (May 6-12). That’s why SMBMI and the Inland Empire 66ers invited local nurses to one of three recent 66ers baseball games at San Manuel Stadium.
Nurses were provided with four complimentary tickets for themselves and three guests to attend the Friday, May 7, Saturday, May 8, or Sunday, May 9 games. They also were given four complimentary food vouchers and complimentary parking.
Nurses in attendance were surprised with a raffle during the second, fourth, and sixth innings of each game to win a FireTV Cube plus a $50 SpaFinder gift card or a Boom Bluetooth Speaker plus a $50 SpaFinder gift card. In the seventh inning, they could win an Apple Watch Series 6 (GPS) 44mm plus a $100 SpaFinder gift card.
The May 7 game was postponed, however, another Nurses Night is planned for Friday, May 21 for those who RSVP’d for the May 7 game.
Local hospitals and medical centers invited to participate in this special San Manuel and 66ers’ Nurses Week celebration due to a long-standing relationship with SMBMI included Loma Linda University Medical Center, Dignity Health (Community Hospital of San Bernardino and St. Bernardine Medical Center), and Arrowhead Regional Medical Center.
