Great Lakes Loons News Release


MIDLAND, Mich. - The Great Lakes Loons are excited to be part of Minor League Baseball's national Play Ball Weekend, presented locally by Central Michigan University, again this season. Families across the Great Lakes Bay Region are invited to spend Father's Day at Dow Diamond this year on Sunday, June 15th to be part of a special limited-edition opportunity.

All registrants will enjoy complimentary subscriptions to MLB.TV and MiLB.TV, along with a free lawn ticket to the game. The first 200 kids will receive a free Franklin bat and ball set, plus all registrants have the chance to learn from the best as Loons players lead a pre-game clinic. Up to 400 spots are available for the clinic. Fans can sign their kids (5-12 years old) up by clicking "Register Now" here: Loons Play Ball Weekend.

The whole family is in for a memorable day where kids can eat free on Sundays and run the bases after the game, thanks to Serra Toyota of Saginaw. A ticket is required to enter the ballpark for non-kids' clinic participants. The day is capped off with dads and their kids being invited onto the field to play catch after the game, making a memory that will last a lifetime.

"We see hundreds of families at the ballpark every year celebrating Mother's Day and Father's Day, depending on how the Loons schedule falls," Loons President & General Manager Chris Mundhenk said. "What we have to offer families this year on Father's Day in terms of value during Play Ball Weekend is one of the best bang-for-your-buck deals we've ever had."

The clinic is scheduled to run from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., followed by a chance for autographs before gates open to the general public at 12 p.m. First pitch against the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers is scheduled for 1:05 p.m. Access to the field for running the bases and catch following the game will happen 10-20 minutes after the final out is recorded.
