Press Release: Paints gearing up for 20th Anniversary

By
Press Release-
Mark it down on your calendar….Thursday, May 31 2012.
 
That’s when the first pitch will be fired at V. A. Memorial Stadium that will officially kickoff the Chillicothe Paints Baseball’s 20th season.
    
Since 1993, the Paints have been about fun and affordability .. and of course, great baseball.
    
The Paints have announced their promotional calendar for the upcoming season and it promises to be an exciting one, combining a mixture of the old, but proven, fun-filled nights and some new and exciting events.
    
If you have children, then you’ll love Tuesday game when children 12-under eat free, compliments of Pepsi. Sunday Night games are “Kids Night’, thanks to the Family Dental Center. Kids 12-under will be admitted for just $1.  
    
Brand new this year … every Sunday home game, plus other special nights throughout the season “Inflatable’s Rides”, including the popular “Bounce House” from Triple Crown Fun Center will be featured.
    
“Senior Citizens” (age 60-and over) are treated each night to reduced ticket prices and on Tuesday, June 19, all Senior Citizens will be admitted absolutely free.
    
“Welcome Home Veteran’s Night” will be observed on Saturday, June 23 when all Veterans and current military personnel will be admitted free.

“Winning Wednesdays” are back. The Paints have four Wednesday home games this year and on each one of those games, thanks to the Valero, a total of $500 in gasoline gift cards will be awarded to five lucky fans ($100 each) in attendance.
    
Every Thursday home game, including “Opening Night” is another “Thirsty Thursday”, featuring $1 draft beer!
    
Fireworks is for all ages, and the Paints have three big nights planned this summer including Thursday, May 31 (Opening Night), Saturday, June 30 (20th Year Celebration) and “Fan Appreciation” night, Wednesday, August 1.
    
Other special nights include; Diamond Giveaway (Dixon Jewelers) Dime-A-Dog Night, Bark-In-The-Park Night, Scout Night, 4-H Night, Columbus Zoo Night, (Ross County Sheriff’s) D.A.R.E. Night and School’s Out Party, and Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure(GOBA) Night.

Souvenir giveaways for the 2012 campaign include; Paints T-Shirt Night (Chillicothe Transit), Paints Visor Night (Printex), Paints Magnetic Schedule Night (Maleine Davis/Fran Francis Realty, Frisbee Night (IBI Construction Services), Keychain Night (Budweiser), Recycling Bag Night (Rumpke Waste & Recycling) and Team Photo Night (Ken Farrar).

Of course no Paints’ season would be complete without the popular post-game  “Party with the Paints” Nights. Three are scheduled this year, featuring the top party bands in southern Ohio, including “Filo Beddoe” and “Rock ‘N Country."

There are plenty of reasons for fans of all ages to make plans to attend one or more Chillicothe Paints games this season.
