Charleston RiverDogs News Release


Charleston, SC - The Charleston RiverDogs continue their season-long 12-game homestand May 13-18 at Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park, as the team welcomes the Salem Red Sox for a six-game series.

The week includes a giveaway for your four-legged friends, an on-field wedding, St. Patrick's Day in the summer, and a recognition of Armed Forces Day.

The full homestand agenda is listed below:

Tuesday, May 13, 7:05pm - Dog Day Tuesday, presented by Twisted Tea

Every Tuesday is Dog Friendly at The Joe, thanks to Twisted Tea. This Tuesday, you and your pooch will want to arrive early, as the first 500 dogs receive a collapsible dog bowl - perfect for future trips to the ballpark! This week, Retrievers are our featured breed - so bring your goldens and labradors out for an in-game parade and the chance to win "Good Boy/Girl of the night."

Wednesday, May 14, 7:05pm - Wildcard Wednesday, presented by Wicked Weed: Wedding Night

Cue up the wedding bells. This Wicked Weed Wild Card Wednesday is all about love and marriage. A real couple - Alissa and Trey - will exchange vows on-field in a pre-game ceremony and then dance the night away with a game-long reception, line dancing and toasts included.

Calling all future brides - get your tickets and check out a mini bridal show on the concourse. We'll be giving away an engagement photo shoot and gift certificates for DJ services, venues and a whole lot more. All Wednesday games are presented by 105.5 The Bridge.

Thursday, May 15, 7:05pm - Thirsty Thursday, presented by Budweiser; Summer St. Patty's Day
