From the Desk of the GM - June 16, 2009

“Upcoming home stand – June 19-22”

Here are some highlights of what’s happening at the ballpark the next four games:

Friday, June 19 vs. Joliet JackHammers – 7 p.m. – Flashback Friday #3

Carmine Cappuccio will be here wearing his familiar #7 jersey, throwing out the opening pitch, signing autographs and saying hello to some old and new friends. Don’t forget, that jersey that he will be wearing for the opening pitch will be autographed by Carmine and auctioned off during the game. Goldeyes will be wearing the retro jerseys and hats again.

Also on this night, to make up for the fireworks show that was cancelled on June 8, Archangel Fireworks will be here putting on their usual spectacular show after the game.

The ALS Society of Manitoba will be at the park raising funds throughout the game. During an early between-inning break, batting helmets will be circulated through each section and the Skysuites level to collect monetary donations. This was a great fundraiser for the ALS Society last year and knowing how generous Goldeyes fans are, I’m sure it will be again!

Saturday, June 20 vs. Joliet – 6 p.m. – Forecast is for sunshine and 25 degrees, a great night to be watching baseball at Canwest Park!

Sunday, June 21 vs. Joliet – 1:30 p.m. – Father’s Day! What better giveaway on Father’s Day than nine Caroma toilets? Our good friends at Dynasty Bathrooms have provided us with a toilet to giveaway every inning. After the game, please join us on-field and play catch with your Dad, or sister, brother, uncle, aunt…you get the idea.

Monday, June 22 vs. Joliet – Noon – Our second home weekday matinee game of the season. A great way to spend an afternoon.
