Silver Hawks on the air!

Have you heard the exciting news? The Silver Hawks have partnered with ESPN Radio 1490 AM to broadcast all the Silver Hawks games this year - including the Silver vs. Gold exhibition game against Notre Dame and all playoff games. Now we will all be able to follow the team on the road!
Thanks to our new radio deal, we have a new face joining the front office staff! Owen Serey will be the "Voice of Silver Hawks Baseball" and will be joining the staff in March. We're pretty excited to have him on board - he knows the league and spent the last few season with the Dayton Dragons.

Have you visited our new website yet? If not, be sure to check it out as there is all kinds of great information. Be sure to sign up for our weekly newsletter while you're there - I heard the front office folks are getting ready to announce the new name.... I voted a couple of times so hopefully my favorite name wins!

Stay tuned... there is more exciting information about this season to come!

Red Shoes??

Greetings Silver Hawks Fans!

I was a little leery when those front office folks told me I needed to find a pair of red shoes for a press conference this morning, but I have to say, it was a nice change of pace.

We just made a big announcement this morning about a new event called the YWCA's Walk a Mile in Her Shoes in which men in our community will walk a mile in a women's red high heeled shows to raise funds and awareness about violence against women.

Now I tried to find some high heels in my size, but no luck! Hopefully I can find some actual heels for the event on April 4th here at the Cove.

I do have to say... Silver Hawks President Joe Kernan looks pretty good in his heels... what do you think?

It's for a great cause and I know I'm honored to be included in the event. Visit silverhawks.com or ywcasjc.org to learn more and register for the event.

Not Long Now!

Greetings Silver Hawks Fans!

Opening Day is just three months away from today and I am getting so excited for Silver Hawks Baseball!

Have you checked out my Facebook page yet? I'm finally starting to get some friends, but I want more! At least I have over 13,000 reading buddies with my new Reading Club.

Don't forget that Season Seats, Mini Plans and Group Tickets are already on sale - this is your chance to get the best seats in the house before they go on sale to the public. Give us a call at 574-235-9988!

BRRR!

Wow! It's hard to think about baseball when we have all this snow. Believe it or not, Opening Day is just 93 days away (check out my nifty countdown below), but the action on the field will actually start the week before with the 2nd Annual Silver vs. Gold Exhibition Game. The Silver Hawks will take on the University of Notre Dame Baseball Team. The Silver Hawks won last year and I know they can do it again - afterall, we're talking professional baseball here!

I know I keep talking about it, but I'm so excited about my new Reading Club! Close to 13,000 area students have joined and we are going to have so much fun. It's great that so many kids are excited about reading!

Things are getting pretty busy around the Silver Hawks office - you should give us a call! We have all kinds of great ticket packages, picnics, Field of Dreams and Birthday Party packages that you can book today.

Stay warm... baseball season is just around the corner!

2009!

Hey Silver Hawks Fans,

Happy New Year! I hope that everyone enjoyed their holidays - I know that I did. I took a little vacation and found some time to finally get around to creating a Facebook page so feel free to add me as your friend!

Now that 2009 is here, that means a new baseball season is just around the corner. Opening Day is just over 3 months away and I can't wait! We still have plenty of season seat and mini plan packages available for purchase so be sure to give us a call.

I don't know if you heard about my new Reading Club yet, but we're up to almost 11,000 participants... I'm so excited!

For more information, give us a call or visit www.silverhawks.com.
