IronPigs unveil new look
The event will begin at 3:30 P.M. with the doors opening at 2:45 P.M.
The focus of the event will be the unveiling of all the IronPigs approved on-field uniforms. The uniforms will be modeled by local radio personalities who will be competing with their "modeling skills" for a charity of their choice. Following the event, there will be an auction allowing fans the opportunity to own the "first" of each style jersey as well as an official Philadelphia Phillies #19 retro home jersey autographed by former outfielder Greg Luzinski. Proceeds from the jersey auction will go to the charity previously selected by the winning "model," as determined by a panel of judges.
Other features of the event include a brief IronPigs Fashion Show, which will be conducted by the Fashion Merchandising Department of Lehigh Valley College (LVC), as well as updates on Coca-Cola Park and other IronPigs information.
The event is open to the public and there is no charge for admission. For more information about the event, please go to www.ironpigsbaseball.com/cocacola/specialevents.
