There will be two shifts available: Team Awesome from 1:30pm to 3:30pm and Team Amazing from 3:30pm to 5:30pm. Volunteers may choose between one or both shifts and all volunteers will receive pizza and a free ticket to the event.

The Springfield Cardinals will host the San Antonio Missions at 5:10pm at Hammons Field followed by a pre-fireworks concert headlined by Sequel Dose.
