Fort Wayne, IN - The Fort Wayne TinCaps and the Fort Wayne Mad Ants are holding a joint audition on Saturday, October 26th, at the Wambsganss Gymnasium at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne as they search for the newest members of their seasonal entertainment staff. The teams are in search of enthusiastic and experienced candidates to serve as their mascots, Johnny and the Mad Ant, respectively, for the teams' coming seasons.

A flexible schedule is appreciated. These are not full-time positions.

The tryout will be held from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. There is no fee or advance paperwork required. Interested candidates should contact Abby Naas with the TinCaps at 260-482-6400 or by email, [email protected], or Heidi Busch with the Mad Ants at 260-469-4667 x 108 or [email protected].
