I Hired Elves<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

You just can\u2019t imagine what these elves come up with.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

By Andy Neborak<\/span><\/p>\n

CFO \/ Part-Owner, Eau Claire Express<\/span><\/p>\n

Why in the world do I hire elves for a baseball team?<\/p>\n

Well, you may be struggling to come up with the right gift for a baseball fan that you know. My elves can help.\"\"<\/p>\n

For instance, when the elves and I sat down to talk about this holiday season, the elves had some strong opinions.<\/p>\n

\u201cLess games,\u201d one elf, the plump one, said. \u201cThat\u2019s what families want.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, make it easy for families,\u201d said another elf, the one that\u2019s always smiling.<\/p>\n

\u201cGive them lots of free stuff,\u201d said the elf that did cartwheels when trying to make a point.<\/p>\n

So the elves and I created a ticket package for busy families. This may work for you. Here\u2019s what you get.<\/p>\n

1. Just Five Games. That\u2019s only one or two a month for the summer when school is out. There are even two plans to choose from. One that includes mostly weekend games and another that includes mostly weekday games.<\/p>\n

2. All-You-Can-Eat. At every 5-Game Pack night, you\u2019ll get all of the hot dogs, cheeseburgers, brats, sides, soda, and water that you want. Everything comes with the ticket. There\u2019s even an express line behind the 1st base bleachers dedicated just to the 5-Game Pack ticket holder. This means no waiting in line!<\/p>\n

3. FREE Gifts. We like to give our fans special items and experiences, so for every 5-Game Pack, you get that too. You\u2019ll get: A free Express jersey, a Hank Aaron bobblehead and an opportunity to take pre-game batting practice<\/p>\n

4. The Best Promotional Nights. Entertainment acts, giveaways, and fireworks, (including the earliest and best way to reserve seats for the Fourth of July).<\/p>\n

5. Highly Affordable. Just $14 per game. The cost per 5-Game Pack is just $70. The value is over $230! We have a limited amount of the elf-created 5-Game Packs available, so I would recommend that you order today.<\/p>\n

Reserve your Kwik Trip 5-Game Pack today by calling 715-839-7788 or visit our website at www.EauClaireExpress.com\/tickets\/5-game-packs to order online. You\u2019ll make my elves happy. You\u2019ll give an amazing gift. And you\u2019ll make yourself happy next summer when you\u2019re having fun at Express games.<\/p>\n
