TinCaps to Honor Military, Families, and Veterans at Game

FortWayneTinCaps_2013-06-09

 

Fort Wayne, IN – The Fort Wayne TinCaps are set to host Military Appreciation Night at Parkview Field on Wednesday, June 12, at 7:05 when the TinCaps take on the Lake County Captains.

Thanks to sponsorships and donations, the TinCaps are giving away free tickets for Military Appreciation Night to military members, the families of military members, and veterans. These tickets can be requested prior to Wednesday’s game through TinCapsMilitary.com.

Also as part of Military Appreciation Night, the TinCaps will wear special red, white, and blue jerseys, which will later be auctioned off for fans on July 5. Proceeds from the red, white, and blue jersey auction will go toward Honor Flight Northeast Indiana. In addition, organizations from around the Fort Wayne community that offer services for military members and their families, as well as veterans, will be present during Wednesday’s game in Parkview Field’s Lincoln Financial Event Center.

Sharon Eichman of the Fort Wayne Area Blue Star Mothers (the TinCaps’ community organization of the game) will throw out the ceremonial first pitch on Military Appreciation Night, while Fort Wayne City Council President Tom Didier is scheduled to sing God Bless America during the seventh-inning stretch.

Tickets to Military Appreciation Night can be purchased by calling the Parkview Field Ticket Office at 260-482-6400, visiting the Parkview Field Ticket Office in-person, or by clicking here.

Welcome to clubphilanthropy.com!

Minor League Baseball clubs have been actively involved in their communities for many years. For the first time, their activities and contributions will be chronicled on this site.

Clubs don’t publicize all of their activity, so these stories represent a mere fraction of the contributions MiLB clubs make to their communities every year.
