February 3, 2016 - Pacific Coast League (PCL1)
Sacramento River Cats News Release


WEST SACRAMENTO, CA - The Sacramento River Cats are excited to announce the promotions schedule for the 2016 season, with the team's home opener Friday, April 15. The 2016 promotions schedule is packed full with premium giveaways, six specialty jerseys, the addition of Orange Fridays and more.

Over the course of the team's 72-home game schedule, the River Cats have eight exciting giveaways planned for fans, including a Hunter Pence River Cats bobblehead (April 22) and a Madison Bumgarner bobblehead (August 12). Also on the calendar for the 2016 season is a Susacramento shirt giveaway (May 6), a Beat LA flag (May 27), a Barry Zito dual jersey (June 17), a Mike Piazza Hall of Fame t-shirt (July 1), a vintage grey San Francisco Giants cap (July 8) and a Gaylord Perry statue (September 2).

Brand new for the 2016 season is the addition of Orange Fridays at Raley Field. Every Friday home game, the River Cats will take the field in orange Sactown jerseys. Fans will be encouraged to break out their River Cats - or San Francisco Giants - orange for all Friday River Cats games and attend a pregame happy hour.

Also new is Wellness Wednesdays, a weekly promotion in which fans can participate in healthy-living activities before games at the park. Events like yoga on the field, a Tour de Cat bike ride to the game, and more are a part of this promotion. Other daily, value-oriented promotions will return, including Cache Creek Bingo Monday, Toyota Family Value Tuesdays, Miller Lite Thirsty Thursdays, Sutter Health Saturday Fireworks and K-LOVE Sunday Funday.

As they were last season, the River Cats will again be at home on five major holidays: Mother's Day (May 8), Memorial Day (May 30), Father's Day (June 19), Independence Eve (July 3) and Labor Day (September 5), the final game of the season. Each holiday game offers a ticket and picnic option for those fans who wish to celebrate at the ballpark. Similarly, the River Cats will celebrate local military personnel and first responders with a Salute to Armed Forces (May 28) and a Salute to First Responders (July 23).

Salute to Armed Forces night also features one of the team's six specialty jerseys: a Top Gun flight suit-themed jersey. The team's other specialty jerseys include a stunning Dia de los Muertos jersey for Halfway to Dia de los Muertos and Hispanic Heritage Night (May 7), a patriotic jersey commemorating the 1776 "Don't Tread on Me" flag for Independence Eve (July 3), a San Francisco Giants throwback jersey (July 30) and a tiger jersey for Sacramento Zoo Night (September 3). Given last year's popular Legends of the Hidden Temple jerseys, the River Cats will again be teaming up with Nickelodeon for a Good Burger specialty jersey on August 13.

Some highlighted ballpark promotions include Princess & Pirate Night (April 16), Bark in the Ballpark (May 29), STAR WARS® Night (July 9), Dinger's Birthday Celebration (July 10), Frank 'N Stein Oktoberfest (September 1), and Fan Appreciation Night (September 4) among many others.

An online presale will be available on Saturday, March 5 beginning at 10 a.m. For an updated list of promotions, please visit rivercats.com/promotions or stop by the River Cats' front office.
