Citi Private Pass and ProCamps – Buster Posey Baseball ProCamp

The excellent facilities at St. Ignatius College Preparatory in San Francisco, California hosted All-Star Catcher Buster Posey’s ProCamp on July 2nd. A typical summer day in San Francisco (cold and overcast) did not affect the children as they were constantly kept at task during the three and one-half hour camp.

After dividing up the campers by age and reducing to small groups, each unit was put through training exercises and skill-building activities aimed at sharpening their techniques. Buster gave several talks highlighting the finer points of baseball as well as his life experience. Proper field technique, base running, batting and catching styles were covered. Children were given the opportunity to participate in contests and win special recognition prizes. Each child had the chance to throw one home to Buster.

The take-away bag included a limited edition Buster Posey Baseball ProCamp’s T-Shirt, an exclusive team photo with Buster Posey and his autograph. Thanks go out to the folks at BodyArmor sports drink for keeping all the campers topped-up during the activities.

Citi Private Pass® is a web-based entertainment access program for eligible Citi credit card members and Citibank® Debit Card customers, offering access to some of the best entertainment events and experiences.

Citi Card holders had the opportunity to have lunch with Posey following the camp. The players received a special photo with Buster Posey as well as autographs, but most importantly grew a greater admiration for their sports hero who took time to spend time with them despite having to play the same evening.
