The Mallards have begun to release their 2007 tentative promotional schedule two promotions at a time every weekday.

The promotion for the last game of the year will be announced first while working towards Opening Day on May 31, 2007.

The promotions for Wednesday, August 1 include:

The PDQ & Quench Gum Trading Card giveaway. “I’ll trade you Jordan Comadena for Maynard G. Mallard, straight up.” Similar phrases will be heard around the park as the first 1,000 fans will receive the first of a two-part Mallards trading card set.

This Wednesday and every Wednesday throughout the season will also feature the Mallards wearing yellow uniforms courtesy of Pella Windows. Pella is also sponsoring the “Power of Yellow” Family Four Pack that offers four bleacher tickets, four hot dogs, and four sodas for just $20! How can you beat that?

Thursday, August 2 will feature the last opportunity to complete your PDQ & Quench Gum Trading Card set. Again, the first 1,000 fans will receive a Mallards trading card set. Use these trading cards for collecting, trading, or even putting in your bike’s spokes!

This Thursday and every Thursday throughout the season will also feature the “Working Mans Special” presented by ESPN Radio that offers a ticket, 2 beers, and 2 hot dogs for only 10.70!

Fans will be able to vote at Mallardsbaseball.com to decide which giveaway the Mallards will have on Opening Day.

The choices for the Opening Day giveaway are: sweat bands, bumper stickers, commemorative baseballs, and a mystery item.

Stay tuned to Mallardsbaseball.com every weekday until April 25 for updates on next summer’s promotions!
