KALAMAZOO- After playing six out their first seven games away from Wings Stadium, the Kalamazoo Wings will finally get to spend some time in front of their own fans.

The K-Wings will begin a season-long five-game home stand starting this Friday, November 7th versus the Elmira Jackals. Friday night will be the first 3, 2, 1 Countdown to Fun featuring $3 beers, $2 Pepsi products and $1 hot dogs courtesy of Winter's Sausage. The K-Wings will continue the economically friendly 3, 2, 1 Countdown to Fun promotion during every Friday home game during the regular season.

On November 7th, the K-Wings will host their second annual Van Andel Institute (VAI) Purple Community Night presented by Lake Michigan Credit Union. This game is a continuation of VAI's grassroots fundraising program Purple Community, and raises funds for cancer and neurodegenerative disease research and science education at Van Andel Institute.

Fans can purchase a special Purple Pack for the game on November 7th to support disease research and science education at Van Andel Institute. The Purple Pack includes an exclusive Purple Community K-Wings t-shirt, Purple Community drawstring bag, bracelet and a ticket to the game.
