PLAN YOUR “STAYCATION” WITH THE JACKHAMMERS!

JOLIET-The Joliet JackHammers will be hosting their first ever Family Sleepover Night on Friday, August 14 at 7:05 p.m. when the JackHammers take on the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks at Silver Cross Field. For just $13.00 per family member, the package includes tickets to the game, fireworks after the game, a movie on the video board along with popcorn, a drink and donuts in the morning.

“With the economy in its present shape, we know families are trying to save money,” said JackHammers Executive Vice President/General Manager Kelly Sufka. “This is a great way to ‘get away’ in your own backyard with a night of entertainment!”

Families are asked to bring their own tents. Please remember there are no stakes allowed at this event. The JackHammers request that all tickets for the sleepover be booked in advance. For more information, or to reserve your tickets to the game, please call Sean Keegan at 815-774-2865 or via email at skeegan@jackhammerbaseball.com.

The JackHammers are currently home through Wednesday, July 29. On Wednesday, July 29, the JackHammers host Christmas in July at Silver Cross Field and another Winning Wednesday with Baseball Bingo! For tickets, or for more information, please give the JackHammers a call at (815) 726-BALL (2255) or log on through the team’s official website: www.jackhammerbaseball.com. Fans are also welcome to stop by the Silver Cross Field Box Office during normal business hours.
