Oh, Say Can You Sing the National Anthem for Iron Pigs?

Local singers can audition to sing the National Anthem at an Iron Pigs game.

For the first time ever, IronPigs fans are invited to attend and root on their favorite singers during National Anthem auditions on Saturday, Feb. 16, on the Club Level at Coca-Cola Park.

Auditions will begin at 10 a.m. For the sixth consecutive season, Allied Personnel Services is the presenting sponsor of the National Anthem for IronPigs games at Coca-Cola Park.

Those interested in auditioning to perform the National Anthem at Coca-Cola Park MUST pre-register to get an audition time by calling Gary Nevolis at (610) 841-1251 or via email at gnevolis@ironpigsbaseball.com. All RSVPs must be made by Friday, February 8. No walk-ups will be accepted the day of the audition.

Each February, nearly 200 people attend National Anthem Auditions -- and dozens of those candidates are selected to sing at Coca-Cola Park. A cappella renditions will again be performed by individuals as well as by groups, choirs, choruses, barbershop quartets, etc. Each audition will be limited to 90 seconds in length and judged by both IronPigs executives and Allied Personnel Services officials.

Like last season, the IronPigs will be scheduling live performances of each National Anthem prior to every game at Coca-Cola Park.

The auditions will take place from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the Club Level and those interesting in watching the process are invited to enter through the Club Level (West) entrance.

Just pointing out facts. You are also forgetting that money withdrawn from an IRA or 401k (exceptRead More Roth IRAs) are taxed at withdrawal. I prefer my government not punish good financial actions. Sorry it's a quirk of mine, I think we should reward those who make good decisions, not punish them.

I agree with you Interested Bystander. Problem is that if you punish the ones making the badRead More decisions, the Federal government will be punished all the time. In the current climate, poor decision making gets rewarded by voters. The middle class doesn't have a chance.

Naziti and Caroline Johnson so sorry to take so long to get back to you from your comments onRead More Sunday, May 5th, I didn't think I would have to respond. I re-posted Ken's comment because the REAL issue is "AARP selling out it's faithful supporters for BIG MONEY. So let me break it down so even the Soros trolls understand. ObamaCare guts SS and medicare reserve money by 750 Billion. Which ends these programs as we know them. AARP publicly backs ObamaCare. Seniors confused about OCare but trust AARP and their massive ad campaign for OCare. AARP contributes to re-election AARP becomes insurance provided for OCare. Unleashes host of insurance options that Seniors will be needing to make decisions about in next 2-3 years. Complicate the choices for Seniors so they fall back on who they have trusted in the past. Still unaware of the great deception perpetrated by AARP. OCARE fully enacted 2014. AARP gets steady $$$ insurance income now (not $16 membership fees for whoever posted that line above). SS and MediCare bankrupt (3/4 trillion $ stolen to fund OCare) Result for SENIORS. NO SS or MEDicare it's dissolved or becomes something less. Free OCare that sucks. Pay AARP for supplemental Ins. Prescriptions too expensive to purchase so go without or pay AARP for better plan. AARP richer and more powerful represents Gvmt Seniors - Self rule lost You see they screwed the very people that paid dues for their protection!
