November 22, 2004 - South Atlantic League (SAL1)
Hagerstown Suns News Release


The Suns will begin their 25th season in Hagerstown in 2005. As part of the team's Silver Anniversary celebration, the Suns unveiled today their 25th Anniversary logos.

The "25" logo will be placed on each of the team's official baseball caps, worn by the players both at home and away, embroidered onto the side of the cap. The "25th banner" logo will be used on all of the team's printed materials and will be integral in the Suns 2005 advertising campaign. Both logos, which use silver as its primarly color, will be displayed on different promotional items, giveaways, team merchandise and other promotional materials throughout the Anniversary season.

In addition to the logos, the Suns will celebrate their silver anniversary all season long with special giveaways and promotions. The Suns will have three separate 25th Anniversary Commemorative cap giveaways over the 2005 season. Each cap will feature a different era from the Suns' 25-year history. The cap giveaways are scheduled to take place on May 21st, June 18th and July 23rd.

The team will also be distributing a Silver Anniversary limited edition t-shirt to the 1st 1,000 fans on June 25th and a Silver Anniversary limited edition baseball to the 1st 1,000 fans on August 20th. The Suns expect to add even more 25th Anniversary promotions when they announce their full promotional calendar in March.

"We understand how much the Suns and this community have meant to each other over the past 25 years," said Suns General Manager Kurt Landes. "We're thrilled to be celebrating that fact and we promise our fans that the 25th season will easily be the best one yet."

The Suns, the new single A affiliate of the New York Mets, open their 2005 season on April 7th when they take on the West Virginia Power. For ticket and sponsorship information, contact the Suns at 301.791.6266 or go to the Suns website at www.hagerstownsuns.com. The Suns are owned by Los Angeles-based Mandalay Baseball Properties.
