Richmond, Va. -The Richmond Flying Squirrels, Double-A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, begin a week-long unveiling of their celebratory 5th Season 2014 Promotional Calendar today with the announcement of 24 Fireworks Extravaganzas to take place at The Diamond during the 2014 regular season.
The slate of Fireworks Extravaganzas includes Opening Night 2014 on April 10th and consecutive displays to celebrate Independence Day (July 4th & July 5th). The traditional Thursday Night Fireworks Series presented by Your Local Ford Dealers will return for 2014 and will once again be joined by the popular Saturday Night Fireworks Series.
Each of the Flying Squirrels' 11 Thursday home games will feature a Fireworks display, as will at least 9 of the 11 Saturday home games. The pair of Saturday games without Fireworks (April 26 & June 14) will feature giveaways and other exciting promotions. The Squirrels will also host three shows on Friday nights and one Wednesday night (April 30). All dates are subject to change.
"When we reflect on each season and examine fan feedback, the conversations always revert to our Fireworks Extravaganzas. It's what our fans want," said Flying Squirrels' Vice President & COO Todd "Parney" Parnell. "However, this year's fireworks lineup is just the tip of the iceberg and a great foundation for our promotional schedule."
