Citizens Bank has announced that 59 colleagues have been selected for the 2016 Citizens Bank Ballpark Banker program, including Debbie Miller-Curtis of Voorhees.
Ballpark Bankers are Citizens Bank colleagues who work as brand ambassadors during all Philadelphia Phillies home games at Citizens Bank Park.
Launched in 2004 with the opening of Citizens Bank Park, the Ballpark Bankers program is an ambassador program.
A select squad of Citizens Bank colleagues help fans find their seats, provide directions and offer courtesy golf cart rides to fans before the game from the parking lot to the gates.
“Our ballpark bankers provide a unique experience for the thousands of fans that come to Citizens Bank Park every year,” said Daniel K. Fitzpatrick, President of Citizens Bank for Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. “In no other ballpark that we know of can baseball fans encounter special ambassadors who provide assistance in order to ensure the fans have a great time.”
Ballpark Bankers also distribute prize packs, including t-shirts, backpacks and other branded items, to seven lucky fans during the seventh inning of each home game.
In addition to these roles, Ballpark Bankers volunteer in community outreach efforts, such as the bank’s involvement with the Phillies Jr. RBI League. The league reaches more than 7,000 inner-city children by teaching them baseball and the basics of teamwork and sportsmanship.
