From there Secretary of the CLU, Matthew Maguire, is credited for first proposing a national Labor Day holiday. Oregon became the first state to make Labor Day an official public holiday in 1887. It may mark the unofficial end of summer, but come enjoy food, fun, and fireworks with us. Following the game is our post-game Monster Food Truck Rally. Scheduled to appear are the following food trucks: Dough Dough, KCM Egg Rolls, ODB Meat & Greet, OHM Brownies, Pretty Great Cheesecake, Rollin Nolens, Smokin Bonez, Sumo Egg Rolls, and The Anchor Fish and Chips. Then finish off the night with our Fireworks Super Show.

This is the third to last homestand, but we're pulling out all the stops. We promise not to skate to the finish because dog gone it, we appreciate our fans. Let the music of the season guide you to CHS Field for the six-game homestand from August 30-September 4.
