This season is going to be a party, and you’re invited!
The Eau Claire Express announced its 2020 season-long promotion today with the unveiling of their ‘Sweet 16’ season logo and promotional update. Celebrating their 16th season as a team in 2020, 16 games throughout the upcoming season will recognize and rejoice in the accomplishments that the Eau Claire Express has had, one year and game at a time.
“When coming up with a theme for the entire season we thought that there would be no better way than to celebrate our 16th season with 16 birthday parties,’ said Express General Manager Jacob Servais “We wanted to choose a theme that allowed our fans to have a great time at the ballpark while celebrating all the things that make Express baseball what it is, our history.”
The Eau Claire Express will begin their season on Saturday, May 30th with a game against the Willmar Stingers at 7:05 pm and celebrate the Express’s inaugural 2005 season. Throughout the season, select ‘Sweet 16’ games will feature exclusive giveaways, guest appearances, and many more surprises. Eau Claire will conclude their ‘Sweet 16’ party during our Fan Appreciation Weekend August 8-9 as we host the final regular-season home games of the year against Mankato and celebrate the 2020 season.
In the upcoming weeks, the Express will unveil further ‘Sweet 16” and 2020 season promotional plans that include national acts, fireworks dates, and merchandise contests.
