From the South Bend Cubs:
With Opening Day on the horizon, the South Bend Cubs are excited to release the 2018 promotions schedule. After consulting with countless fans on what they wanted to see on the schedule this season, the team anticipates this year’s promotions will be more fan-oriented than ever.
“In our annual post-season fan surveys, we asked our fans what they wanted to see in the 2018 season, said South Bend Cubs Director of Media and Promotions Chris Hagstrom-Jones. “Coming to a game at Four Winds Field isn’t just about baseball, it’s an experience. It’s a nine-inning vacation where friends and families get together and dress up as super heroes or storm troopers and have a chance to win a flat-screen TV. We don’t just host baseball games, we make memories.”
Fireworks and flat screens once again dominate the schedule, as the club will host 17 post-game firework shows and 11 TV giveaway nights. Many weekly promotions from last season will also return for 2018.
