RailCats Partner with St. Jude House, Add Fireworks to August 3

Gary, IN – The RailCats are excited to partner with St. Jude House on Thursday, August 3 for the St. Jude House See You in the Seats Night presented by Ozinga.

The RailCats will wear St. Jude themed jerseys that will be auctioned off during the game. All proceeds will benefit St. Jude House.

Ryan Elinkowski, Executive Director at St. Jude House stated, “We are so grateful for the Railcats and this opportunity to raise much needed awareness and funds to support our mission as all of our services are provided at no cost.”

See You in the Seats Night also adds an additional post-game fireworks show to the RailCats schedule. Fireworks for See You in the Seats Night are courtesy of The Times Media and Midwest Express Clinics.

“We are thrilled to partner with St. Jude House on August 3,” said Anthony Giammanco, General Manager of the RailCats. “They provide remarkable services and aide to those in need, and we are honored to be able to give back to an organization that gives so much to those in need in the community.”

St. Jude House is a safe emergency shelter for victims of domestic violence and their dependent children. They provide a 24-hour crisis line, advocacy, and comprehensive services. St. Jude House is excited to offer their newest programming, Mobile Advocacy, which provides advocates to meet survivors in public locations of their choice to discuss resources and options. St. Jude House works to teach others to recognize the cycle of domestic violence, to empower them to break that cycle and to offer support and follow-up.

The RailCats return home July 20 for a four-game series against the Chicago Dogs. Tickets are available by visiting railcatsbaseball.com or calling 219-882-2255.
