Rafters, Cher-Make Sausage Company Join Forces to Add More Flavor to the Ballpark

WISCONSIN RAPIDS, WI – A fun-filled season of Rafters baseball and authentic Wisconsin Cher-Make hot dogs highlight America’s favorite pastime to summer family schedules.

Cher-Make Sausage Company is proud to partner with the Wisconsin Rapids Rafters as the team’s newly named official and exclusive hot dog provider.  The Rafters are one of 7 Wisconsin sports teams supplied by Cher-Make.

The Rafters open the season at home on May 30th, offering all the family-friendly fun baseball fans can handle. The exciting action on the field will be matched by the authentic Wisconsin flavor of Cher-Make hot dogs.
