Cardinals Day at the Ballpark!
Who's excited for our first all employee day at the ballpark?! Clarkson has purchased enough tickets for each employee, a guest, and (if applicable) their families! And the best part is ... the tickets are free!
Everyone will receive an official invitation soon with details and an RSVP form. We are releasing this early so you can plan ahead and mark your calendars. Before you send in your RSVP I've compiled a few of what I anticipate to be FAQs below. Take a moment to read, and call or email me with any questions:
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Q: "What if I'm married (or have a boyfriend/girlfriend) and I have 3 kids?"
You would get 5 tickets - one for you, one for your significant other, and one for each of your kids.
Q: "I'm single right now, but have 2 kids."
You would get 4 tickets! One for you, one for a guest of your choice, and one for each of your kids.
Q: "I'm married and want to bring my spouse, but I usually like to bring my mother with me to company events too. Can I have a ticket for her?"
Not this time. You would receive a ticket for yourself and your spouse, but mothers, grandchildren, aunts, cousins, etc. do not count for the additional Clarkson purchased tickets. If you would like to use your guest ticket for your mother and leave your spouse at home you're welcome to do that, but we will not be providing free tickets for every member of everyone's family.
Q: "I'm single with no kids so ..."
You would get 2 tickets - one for you, one for a guest of your choice.
Children 3 and under do not require a ticket to get in, so please don't include them on your RSVP.
Our seats are all together across 3 sections of Busch Stadium.
Parking suggestions and other details will be posted to Clarkson Nation as the day approaches.
A contest will be held over the summer to determine who will throw out a first pitch at the game!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The tickets will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis. We've purchased a set number from the Cardinals, and these should cover everyone being able to attend if the guest guidelines are followed. We want this to be a fun day for everyone, so please think carefully about who you bring and whether or not you'll be able to make it before sending in your RSVP. There's no need to rush! Call me with any questions, and I look forward to everyone joining us in August! Go Cardinals!

Patients can now receive an additional $20 off their visit by scheduling with us online!
When a patient completes the process to schedule online, he or she receives an email confirmation. At the bottom of this email is a coupon for $20 off. See the screenshot below for an example of what this looks like.
Only one of these may be used per person, and it must be present at the time of checkout. Discount the patient only if he or she brings it up - scheduling online does not entitle them to the discount. Contact Tesha or Jessica with any questions.
