Milwaukee Chicks 75th Anniversary Night!


Yay! It's official!

For the past several weeks, I have been in talks with the Milwaukee Brewers to host an event honoring the 75th Anniversary of the 1944 AAGPBL Champion Milwaukee Chicks. And now they've made it public!

From the Brewers' website:

Milwaukee Chicks 75th Anniversary

The Brewers are teaming up with the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the Milwaukee Chicks' 1944 AAGPBL title. Join us as we celebrate women in baseball by purchasing this special ticket package, which includes a seat for the Brewers matchup against the Pirates on Saturday, June 29, and a commemorative Milwaukee Chicks 75th Anniversary hat. Additionally, a portion of all Milwaukee Chicks 75th Anniversary ticket package proceeds will be donated to the AAGPBL Players Association.

Saturday, Jun 29 7:15 PM v. the Pittsburgh Pirates
The giveaway will be a cap - I haven't seen a mockup yet, but I'm hoping that it looks like the old Chicks/Schnitts cap with the "M" in front and maybe a 75th Anniversary logo on the side.

Can't tell you all how overjoyed I am that this is finally official. It honestly hasn't seemed real, even as I spoke with the club about it. But now that they've gone public, I can breath a little easier.

Thank you all for making your voices heard, and I'll see you at the ballpark!
