IronPigs To Wear Camo Jerseys On May 24

The Lehigh Valley IronPigs will pay homage to active military members and veterans by wearing specialty camouflage jerseys as part of Military Appreciation Day presented by Nacci Printing on Sunday, May 24 at 1:35 p.m. against the Charlotte Knights at Coca-Cola Park. The specialty jerseys presented by Gary Lee's Brown Daub Kia will be auctioned off with proceeds benefiting both IronPigs Charities and the Keystone Wounded Warriors.

Keystone Wounded Warriors is am Eastern Pennsylvania based 501 (c)(3) non-profit corporation that seeks to honor the daily sacrifices made by the brave men and women in all branches of the United States Military, but specifically those wounded on or after September 11, 2001. Keystone Wounded Warriors aids Wounded Warriors by raising public awareness and seeking the public's support for programs and services that assist Wounded Warriors. Funds donated to Keystone Wounded Warriors are used to support local post-9/11 veterans and their families located in or with ties to Pennsylvania. The remaining funds are donated to national post-9/11 wounded veterans organizations.

The IronPigs will honor all military members in attendance with a special pre-game ceremony. A number of other events are scheduled to honor our nation's heroes on this special day at Coca-Cola Park and will be announced in the near future.

Fans can bid on their favorite player's Camo jerseys from anywhere with the easy-to-use Qtego service that allows fans to place bids, receive notifications when outbid and check the status of their item via text messages on their mobile phones. Fans without texting access can even call in their bid after registering their phone at Coca-Cola Park. Register your phone from anywhere in the U.S. by texting "Pigs" to 79230. The bidding begins on May 23 and ends promptly at the end of 7th inning of the May 245 game. Detailed instructions on how to place your bid will be made available at ironpigsbaseball.com.

Winning bidders of the jerseys will have the opportunity to go on the field immediately following the game to have their jersey autographed. Bidders not in attendance at Coca-Cola Park can either pick up their signed jersey at a later date or have it mailed directly to them. 

Great seats are still available for Military Appreciation Night and all upcoming games and can be purchased in-person at Coca-Cola Park (Monday-Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Saturday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.), by calling (610) 841-PIGS (7447) or online at ironpigsbaseball.com/tickets. Make sure to inquire about our brand-new seating area, "The Pig Pen", a revolutionary new seating area that puts fans directly in front of the players in the left field bullpens and just inches away from the on-field action.
