Bees to Don Pink Jerseys

The Salt Lake Bees will trade the team's traditional white home uniforms for pink jerseys this Friday, May 15, when the team takes on the Omaha Royals at Spring Mobile Ballpark. The Bees will wear the jerseys in support of Breast Cancer Awareness.

The Bees encourage fans attending the game to show their support for breast cancer awareness by wearing pink. The first 1,500 fans in attendance will receive pink wristbands courtesy of ICON Health & Fitness.

A silent auction for the player-worn jerseys will be held during the game with proceeds benefiting HCF. Winning bidders will have the opportunity to meet Bees players on the field postgame to take photographs and receive the player autographed jerseys.

In partnership with Swing for Life, the Bees will also have available for purchase pink t-shirts, pink candy, and pink mini-bats with all proceeds benefiting HCF.

Swing for Life, based in Salt Lake City, is a 501c-3 non-profit organization dedicated to raising money to contribute to on-going and ground-breaking research in the fight against breast cancer.

The Huntsman Cancer Foundation gives a Reason to Hope® to cancer patients and their families around the world. HCF is a non-profit organization dedicated to maximizing resources to support the research, education, and treatment at Huntsman Cancer Institute and Hospital.
