Whitecaps $5 Night*: Take them all out to the ballpark

This holiday weekend, why not consider a trip just a few miles north of the city to attend a West Michigan Whitecaps Baseball game as they wrap up their regular season.

And there isn’t a better time than now (Thursday, Aug. 31) to purchase a ticket to attend one of America’s favorite summer activities because admission to the 1 p.m. Labor Day game is a perfectly priced ticket at just $5. 

But here’s the important fine print: in order to take advantage of this special Labor Day pricing, you will have to purchase these specially priced admission by end of the day on Thursday, August 31. Typically, reserved seats to see our local minor league will run you $12.50, so this is a really great offer from the Whitecaps to entice the fans to come out for this final game before the playoffs.

In addition to a battle with the Fort Wayne TinCaps, the stadium will also feature $1 brats, courtesy of Johnsonville.
 
You can purchase these specially priced tickets at the Fifth Third Ballpark ticket office, by calling the Whitecaps front office at 616-784-4131, or at www.whitecapsbaseball.com. Note: There is a limit of eight tickets per person.
 
If you have Labor Day plans, then consider purchasing full-priced tickets to attend one of the final two fireworks shows of the season on Saturday, September 2 and Sunday, September 3.  If you select Sunday, then this is also the last Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital Day with the first 1,000 kids 12 and under eating free, along with a host of other family fun activities.
 
Our local Whitecaps team has secured a Midwest League playoff berth by winning the first half East Division so this is not the end of your chances. It is just the last time you will see ticket admission prices this low in 2017.
