St. Cloud, MN — The St. Cloud Rox are excited to announce the organization’s sixth annual Military Appreciation Night presented by Advantage 1 Insurance Agency will be on Thursday, June 27 as the Rox take on the Waterloo Bucks at 7:05 p.m. at the Rock Pile.

The night will honor local active and retired members of armed services featuring a Military Hero Baseball Card Set Giveaway. The Rox will also be wearing special jerseys during the game and will auction them off once again, with all of the proceeds raised benefiting St. Cloud StandDown, a local organization that has been serving homeless and at-risk veterans for more than 20 years.
