Start in Chicago
We help you coordinate your flight to Chicago to arrive within designated times so that our staff may greet you upon arrival. Based on enrollment, participants from the New York area may also have a chaperoned flight.  Final flight details are determined in the spring. For our many travelers from outside the New York area, you can choose to connect to the chaperoned flight, or reserve a flight that fits within our designated time window. 

Return from Philadelphia
You may fly home from Philadelphia within our designated departure times. Our leaders help you to check-in and remain in the airport until flights in designated times have departed. For those from the New York area, we include chaperoned ground transportation back to New York.

Food and Meals
Eating well while away from home is an important part of a summer’s success. We understand how it helps our travelers feel secure, happy and looking forward to their day. Whether you experience the Crab Cakes at Camden Yards, a famous Cinnamon Bun Egg Roll at Citi Field or Slider Dogs at Progressive Field, a definite highlight for fanatics has been sampling the best of each ballpark’s cuisine. Breakfasts are usually served buffet style at your hotels. When you are at night games, you will dine at the ballpark. On other days, you will enjoy family-style meals and open menu orders at a variety of restaurants. For lunches, on days with afternoon games, we enjoy ballpark food. On touring or travel days, you will have the option to choose from a variety of restaurants in popular areas or while traveling to our next destination.

We have satisfied the choosiest of eaters and gladly accommodate most special dietary requests including vegetarian, food allergies, lactose intolerance, celiac disease, and kosher style. We welcome discussing your individual requirements with you and have extensive experience in this area.

MLB Schedule
The itinerary for this program may change pending the 2026 MLB final schedule.

Laundry
You will only need to bring one week’s worth of clothing as outlined in the packing list that will be sent to you prior to departure. We visit local laundromats weekly and we will supply the detergent and dryer sheets. Don’t worry if you’ve never done laundry before, we’ll show you the ropes. Parents, we know the thought of your children doing laundry is making you smile!
