Thank you, the fans, for making the 2010 season a huge success. We could not have made this season as special as it was without all
of you. The fans in Fort Wayne have always supported local sports, but this season was particularly impressive, with a record 404,942
fans coming through the turnstiles of Parkview Field and 26 sellouts during the 2010 season. This attendance total is 26,413 higher than
our regular season attendance in our inaugural season in 2009.
Once again, the TinCaps set numerous records on the field and in the stands while generating excitement in and around downtown Fort
Wayne. The 2010 Fort Wayne TinCaps had one of the best records in franchise history, going 77-63 including another appearance in the
Midwest League playoffs. With future Major Leaguers such as Jason Hagerty, Jerry Sullivan, Everett Williams, Miles Mikolas and oth-
ers, this year’s team created memories many nights. The combination of an excellent on-field team and the in-game entertainment that
fans have come to love produced a season that no one will forget.
The TinCaps were champions off the field as well. The TinCaps Reading Program, newly enhanced for the 2010 season with online lesson
plans and other goal-oriented incentives, was utilized by over 300 schools and libraries in Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio. In our 11th year
with the reading program, 2010 was the biggest season ever for involvement. Parkview Field hosted three Scout Overnights (welcoming
over 1,400 Boy and Girl Scouts), and our mascot, Johnny, was welcomed at Little Leagues, non-profit groups, and countless other com-
munity appearances across the Tri-State Region.
Parkview Field provides options for groups of 15 up to 1,500. Companies that experienced a group outing at Parkview Field in 2009 and
2010 have raved about the ease of the process, the beauty of the venue, the entertainment and the value. Whatever the event, our staff
will work with you to keep the TinCaps at the top of your spring and summer entertainment options. Once again, I thank everyone for
coming out during the 2010 season and hope for even more fun in 2011!

Since opening Parkview Field we have found one of the best new features to be the Treetops area. It has enabled us to treat
our employees and their families to a baseball venue different from any we have found before. Nothing beats food hot off the
grill, but varying the menu every couple of innings was a stroke of genius. Accompanied by the “bottomless” side dishes and
desserts, it’s a great and affordable way for us to say thank you to our employees for all they do. William, the head grill chef,
and the entire Treetops staff do a great job. We look forward to hosting the event for many years to come.”
• Dave Bear, President, JB Tool, Die, & Engineering Co., Inc.
If you are looking for the most upscale picnic venue at Parkview Field, look no further than J. Chapman’s Suite Level Loft.
Perched above the first base line, this luxury area is open-air providing an exclusive atmosphere with room to
mingle for 60-80 people.
“We have had the pleasure of hosting an event in the J. Chapman Suite Loft during the 2009 and 2010 seasons. Both our employees and
our guests have raved about the setting, dining, and service they received. The entire TinCaps organization should be complimented
for the quality of the experience they deliver. We look forward to hosting another event in 2011.”
• Tom Russell, Ameriprise Financial
The Luxury Suites provide the perfect setting for a business meeting, birthday party, company outing or just a chance to
hang out with friends. Let the TinCaps entertain you with a wide assortment of food and beverage selections as you
watch the game in an exceptional setting with the comforts of home and great views of the game.
“For our annual summer outing we decided to attend a Fort Wayne TinCaps game. What a great experience! The suites are very nice,
the food menus have something for everyone, and it is all fabulous! The staff is there to make your experience very enjoyable. We had
a great view of the TinCaps game from the seats attached to the suite. The Fort Wayne TinCap’s stadium has all of the best features of
a major league stadium and is a great asset for the Fort Wayne Area. Let’s all ‘Go out to the Ballgame!’”
• Joanie Paxson, Office Manager, Citizens Telephone Corp
Enjoy the game and great food with friends in a Concourse Suite.
Located at the top of the seating bowl, directly up from the dugouts on the first base and third base sides,
the open-air suite with high top seating provides a great private option for smaller functions at the ballpark.
“The Concourse Suite at Parkview Field was a great place to treat our staff and their families. We enjoyed the game and the food was
great. We will definitely plan to do this again in 2011, but we will make plans earlier to ensure a Suite is available. It’s a great package
for the price.” • Brian D. Kline, CPA, Kline’s CPA Group, P.C.
Have you ever dreamed of catching a home run? Now it is easier than ever.
