Launch a ball w/the Red Wings & get a free game ticket
| We are excited to have been chosen again this year as the charity that will benefit from the Red Wings "Launch a Ball" promotion. Folks who go to a Saturday game can buy a tennis ball before the game and throw them on the field after the game to try to win a prize.
The proceeds from this promotion will go to the Sunshine Campus. In addition to being talked about during the games, the camp will be featured in radio ads on Warm 101.3, 94.1 The Zone and 93.3 Fickle.
To make this successful, we need your help.
We need eight volunteers for each Saturday night game this year, May 28th to August 13th. All you have to do is sell tennis balls before the game, as a volunteer, you'll get to enjoy the game for free.
Plus, there will be fireworks after each game!
The following are dates that volunteers are needed:
June 11th & 25th
July 16th & 30th
August 13th
To sign up, contact Brandi at the Rotary Office at 546-7435 x210 or [email protected]. |
