Deaf Awareness Day at Chase Field

Ghost Pepper Glasss

A baseball fundraising flyer in support for the DeafBlind Retreat of Arizona (DBRAZ). The flyer has a medium red top and bottom border with dark red section in the middle showing a faded out image of Chase Field in the background. Inside the top portion is an Arizona Diamondbacks logo. The logo is an italicized block letter “A” with a diamond pattern, and the crossbar represented by a snake’s tongue. The logo colors are Sedona Red, Sonoran Sand and Black. The red shade is named for the sandstone canyon at Red Rock State Park near Sedona, while the beige (sand) shade is named for the Sonoran Desert. Below the Arizona Diamondbacks logo, the beige text reads, “Official D-Backs Group”. Below it, the white upper case text reads, “Deaf Awareness Day at Chase Field.”

The next block has two logos. The logo on the left is the Arizona Diamondbacks “A” that is an italicized block letter “A” with a diamond pattern, and the crossbar represented by a snake’s tongue. And the second logo is a San Francisco Giants with a “S” with “F” on top in white on the right. The words “SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2022 at 12:40PM” are in white. The white boxed in area under it has “DEAFBLIND RETREAT OF ARIZONA, A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION” in white, and then “Come to fan friendly Chase Field apart of Deaf Awareness Day on Sunday, September 25th at 1:10pm as the Arizona Diamondbacks take on the San Francisco Giants as apart of several events that recognize September as Deaf Awareness Month. The D-backs are pleased to offer these special discounts to bring, you, your family, friends and colleagues out to an exciting game of baseball in 2022. For each ticket sold, $5 will be donated back to the DeafBlind Retreat of Arizona, a nonprofit organization that unifies the DeafBlind population and empower them with the necessary tools to live a productive life, become leaders, and mitigate the visual and auditory barriers that they encounter in their daily lives. For accessible seating for groups of 15 or larger, please contact Zach Salem at 602-462-4118 or at [email protected]” in white. The next outlined boxed area has “TICKET INFORMATION $31-LOWER LEVEL, BASELINE RESERVE TO PURCHASE TICKETS, PLEASE VISIT FEVO.ME/AZDB” in white. The last two small parallelogram that are black, outlined in a white color, and then has the word “dbacks.com” on the left and “602-462-46—“ on the right in white.
