On August 23, 2007, the St. Louis Cardinals hosted the 2nd Annual Autism Awareness Night at Busch Stadium. Local volunteers and their children were recognized in a pre-game ceremony on the field, during which Cardinals Care presented a $5,000 check to Autism Speaks. A television ad from the Ad Council awareness campaign, tagged with local walk information, was screened on the stadium Jumbotron, and the St. Louis walk was promoted throughout the game.
