(Charleston, W.Va.) - The West Virginia Power, South Atlantic League Affiliate for the Milwaukee Brewers announced their 2007 promotional schedule on Monday. The Power worked all off season to bring a jammed packed promotional schedule to Appalachian Power Park for the summer of 2007.

For each game, Showtime begins one hour prior to the game with a live show from the ballpark featuring radio host Andy "Bull" Barch which will be broadcast on ESPN Radio 1490. When the games begin the Power have a collection of giveaways, entertainment acts, theme nights, and more throughout the summer.

The schedule includes a host of giveaway nights throughout the summer highlighted by a magnet schedule giveaway on Opening Day, Thursday, April 5, a Power Hat Giveaway on April 21, a Charlies Hat Giveaway on May 12, and more.
