Honkers Open their 25th Season at Home on May 29, 2018
(Rochester Minn.) – The Rochester Honkers announced today the unveiling of their 25th Anniversary Season Logo, in conjunction with the Northwoods League’s announcement of the league’s logo.
“It’s pretty special to be able to show off this logo,” said Rochester Honkers General Manager, Dan Litzinger. “It proves the strong sustainability of the Honkers and the Northwoods League.”
Rochester was one of the five Northwoods League inaugural season teams in 1994, and one of two teams to be in existence since that opening day. The Wausau Woodchucks, now called the Wisconsin Woodchucks, and the Rochester Honkers are in that elite group.
The simple iconic logo was developed to show the beginning and where the team is at now. There has only been one logo change since that inaugural season of 1994, which happened in December of 2005.
The Rochester Honkers 25th season begins on Tuesday, May 29th when the team hosts the Eau Claire Express in their home opener at Mayo Field at 7:05 pm. 5-Game Packs and Kids Club Memberships are available now! Season Tickets, ½ Season Plans, Suites and Patios are also available. Call the Rochester Honkers office at 507-289-1170 for more information.
