State College Spikes News Release


(STATE COLLEGE, PA) - The latest edition of the State College Spikes' popular Bark in the Park Night will be held tonight, when the Spikes host the Aberdeen IronBirds (Baltimore Orioles affiliate) at 7:05 p.m. at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park. Ballpark gates will open at 6 p.m. for the general public.

Bark in the Park Night is presented by Metzger Animal Hospital and Newsradio FM 103.

Fans are invited to bring their dogs to the game and enjoy several dog-related promotions and activities throughout the evening, including dog-themed in-game entertainment and music before and during the game.

As an added bonus to Thursday's Bark in the Park Night activities, "Team Ghost Riders" and their Cowboy Monkey Rodeo will entertain fans throughout the evening. The tandems of monkeys and dogs will perform between-inning skits during the game, and fans can get an up-close look at the performers after the game.

In addition, fans attending the game can join Metzger Animal Hospital in helping to support Pets Come First in their first fundraising kick off event to take over the SPCA, Centre Hall shelter.

Dog owners are reminded of the following Bark in the Park Night policies:
