Arkansas Travelers News Release
North Little Rock, Ark. - The Arkansas Travelers and Texas League today announced an allied effort amongst the league's 10 clubs to raise funds to support the Ingram Little League in Ingram, Texas, and to help rebuild local fields and programs in Kerr County, Texas, that were devastated by the floods.
With support from Major League Baseball, Minor League Baseball, Houston Astros, Texas Rangers and the Nolan Ryan Foundation, the Arkansas Travelers and Texas League clubs have partnered to participate in a unified fundraising auction to help restore the Hill Country community.
The teams will conduct several fundraising campaigns over the following weeks, including in-stadium auctions of game used jerseys, online auctions of game used jerseys, and a t-shirt sales campaign.
Immediately following the game in which each team wears the one-of-a-kind collectible jersey, all players and coaches will sign their game worn jersey to be auctioned off online with bids being accepted starting that evening.
"The Travelers are excited to partner with our Texas League friends to support the relief efforts in Hill Country," said Sophie Ozier, Travelers General Manager. "Many Arkansans have been seeking a way to support flood relief efforts in the Hill Country, and this fundraiser with the Travs and Texas League provides that opportunity.
