The Louisville Bats will face off against the St. Paul Saints in Louisville, KY on July 10th, 2022, at 1:05 pm. Just as the National Anthem begins to play, a skydiver from Team Fastrax™ will gracefully fly an 1,100 sq. ft. Gold Star flag. This particular flag has the signatures of over 300 Gold Star families on it, in remembrance of their loved ones.

“Team Fastrax™ is honored to perform our Gold Star flag jump for all of the Louisville Bats fans,” commented John Hart, owner of Start Skydiving, and Founder of Team Fastrax™. “We particularly love performing for any sports event that celebrates our Nation’s heroes and honors the sacrifices they made. Especially those who paid the ultimate price.”

Kids are invited to stick around after the Bats game and run the bases. Each kid ages 12 and under in attendance can receive a free kid’s meal during Sunday home games.
