Though baseball season is already underway in Milwaukee and the Brewers currently sit in first place a few weeks into the season, there’s another team in the region that’s getting ready to take the field. Yes, the Lakeshore Chinooks will begin their ninth season of Northwoods League baseball on May 30, with a home opener scheduled on Friday, June 3.

Beyond the high-caliber play of collegiate standouts at Kapko Park in Mequon, the three-month season also offers fans a number of promotions to help spice up the semi-professional ballgames. Like previous seasons, the Chinooks have a bunch of weird and wonderful giveaways, theme nights, and an appearance by a Baseball Hall Of Famer.

Some highlights include…

June 9: Education Night (free game tickets for teachers and education staff)
June 11: Milwaukee Brewers Night featuring Rollie Fingers
June 18: Bark In The Park Night and Buzz Lightyear Night featuring a Buzz Lightyear appearance
June 19: Free brat for dads
