Game To Be Made Up Tomorrow

Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. – Due to heavy rain, the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters and Wisconsin Woodchucks were forced to cancel today’s home opener. The Rafters and Woodchucks will make up today’s canceled ballgame on Wednesday, May 27th as part of a double header.

The first game of the doubleheader will begin at 5:05 and will be a 7 inning game, making up the rainout from Opening Day.  All fans in attendance will receive a magnet schedule, courtesy of Nieman’s Service in Wisconsin Rapids. The regularly scheduled game will begin 30 minutes following the completion of the make-up game and will feature a live performance by the ZOOperstars! One ticket will be good for both games of the doubleheader.

All fans with Opening Day tickets will be able to exchange their unused tickets to any remaining game during the 2015 regular season, based on availability.
