SeaWolves Host Good Deeds Day July 1

The Erie SeaWolves, Double-A Affiliate of the Detroit Tigers, have teamed up with Erie Federal Credit Union to host the third annual Good Deeds Day on Friday, July 1 at Jerry Uht Park.

Good Deeds Day is a drive to collect items needed by multiple non-profit organizations in the Erie region. Fans who donate an item at the game on July 1 will receive a complimentary reserved seat ticket to the SeaWolves' Fan Appreciation Night on September 1 against the Akron RubberDucks (Cleveland Indians).
