RailRiders Roll Out Kids Club Program

MOOSIC, Pa. – The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders are rolling out their brand new kids club program for the 2013 season at the new PNC Field.  Fans aged 12 and under are invited to experience all of the fun at PNC Field in a way catered to the younger fan by joining the Quills Kids Club presented by Hildebrandt Learning Center.

The Quills Kids Club presented by Hildebrandt Learning Center provides numerous benefits to both parents and children.  For just $20, kids will receive an exclusive Quills Kids Club t-shirt, a free pass to the Fun Zone for the entire season, an end of the season party with the team, as well as $10 off a RailRiders birthday party at PNC Field. Kids will also receive a free NEPA Honda Dealers Association Lawn ticket for all six Wednesday night games, which are Kids Eat Free Games.  Bonus items include a membership card, an e-mail newsletter from the RailRiders' mascot and a birthday card.

"The Quills Kids Club presents a great opportunity for our younger fans to experience a fun time at the new PNC Field," said RailRiders president and general manager Rob Crain. "We've talked about having 72 different events to go along with our 72 games, and we made sure our younger fans were included in this concept as well. The value you get with the membership is outstanding."

The new PNC Field will feature a brand new Fun Zone that will include breathtaking inflatables and new games.  Free access to this childhood paradise is one of the lynchpin positives to being a member of the Quills Kids Club.

"After a recent tour of the RailRiders' new PNC Field, it was clear that the family friendly atmosphere that is being created by team coincides with our focus as a company," said Hildebrandt Learning Center's chief development officer, Tim O'Shea.  "The goal of bringing families together to share quality time in a safe, fun environment works to help strengthen families in Northeastern Pennsylvania.  We are pleased to be a partner with the RailRiders in the revitalization of PNC Field and look forward to being a part of making family time, quality time."

The RailRiders' 2013 season gets underway with the grand opening of a reconstructed PNC Field on April 4 when the defending IL champion Pawtucket Red Sox come to town for a rematch of their 2012 playoff clash with SWB.  It will mark the first "Thirsty Thursday" promotion of the year with $1 beer specials and $1 Pepsi products along with a pre-game live band performance and post-game fireworks.  Partial and full-season ticket plans are now available.
