Dedicated to bringing you the highest level of customer service, in-game entertainment, and of course baseball, the Schaumburg Boomers are proud to announce the Promotional Schedule for the First Half of the 2013 Season! While every home game features free parking and the ability for EVERYONE to run the bases after the game, the Boomers have cooked up a full slate of awesome promotions to put a smile on the face of every fan that walks through the gates this season!

“Fun at our ballpark is about a whole lot more than baseball, and that’s why we’re so pleased to announce this exciting promotional calendar” Boomers President and General Manager Andy Viano said. “Every game is a party and every party has its theme, so if you’re looking for something fun, something different and something that will send you home with a few dollars still left in your pocket, a Boomers game is the place to be in Chicagoland this summer!”

The second season of Boomers Baseball kicks off on Thursday, May 16 at 6:30 p.m., and the first 4,000 fans through the gate will receive an Orange Rally Towel, courtesy of the Boomers Founding Partners—Wintrust Community Banks, ATI Physical Therapy, and Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard P.C. Law Offices. The fun continues the very next night, as the Boomers encourage you to come in costume to help us celebrate Halloween a little bit early with Field of Screams followed by the first spectacular fireworks show of the season!
