Thanks to Amy and Ann-Marie for helping keep me in the loop, so I can keep as many food allergy friends in the loop as possible!

2014 Boston Red Sox Peanut Allergy Friendly Initiative
Overview:
For the tenth year,
the Boston Red Sox will welcome Peanut-Allergy fans to Fenway Park once again
in 2014. In coordination with the New England Chapter of the Asthma and
Allergy Foundation of America, the Red Sox make a concerted effort to help all
fans to see Boston Red Sox Baseball at Fenway Park. Many of the changes to this
season’s Peanut Allergy Friendly initiatives were in response to the 2013
Peanut Allergy Survey.

Booth F
Ticketing
Booth F tickets will
be available on a first come first serve basis. Please email
peanutallergy@redsox.com so I can put you on our 2014 wait list.
Precedence will be given to those families who have not yet attended a 2014
Peanut Allergy Friendly game or had the opportunity to watch a game from Booth
F this season. Once an available date for Booth F is finalized, I will
reach out to groups at the top of our wait list.
Once your tickets
have been purchased and as the game date approaches, I will send out waivers to
be signed and the Fenway Park concessions allergen list.
Notes:
§
Waivers
must be signed before attending a peanut allergy friendly game as we cannot
guarantee a peanut free environment.
§ Please note that Fenway Park is NOT
Peanut Free. We use the term Peanut Allergy Friendly as we know
there are fans who attend Fenway Park that will eat peanuts in other areas of
the park.
§ After every game I will send out a
survey in which I would like all participants to answer. This survey will help
us gain knowledge on how to better improve your experience here at Fenway Park.
§ Please contact me throughout the
season with updated emails and phone number changes. This is to ensure that
everyone stays in the loop and has a fair chance to purchase tickets to our
peanut allergy friendly games.

suggestions, questions, or information on Peanut Allergy Friendly games please
