Ho-Chunk Themed Pinstripe Jersey with Proceeds Benefitting the Witter Field Mural Project

 

Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. – The Wisconsin Rapids Rafters will once again don alternate themed jerseys during game one of tonight’s double header against the Battle Creek Bombers. Fans can submit an online bid (starting at $50) for as many jerseys as they’d like. Bidding will continue during the games on June 12 during which fans will have the chance to match and continue to bid in-person. The auction will end with the last out in the bottom of the 5th inning during the second game and winners will be announced in the 7th inning. Winners do not need not to be in attendance, but it is recommended. ($5 will be added for shipped orders). Proceeds from the auction will go towards the Witter Field mural project.
