The Evansville Otters and Jacob’s Village announced the continuation of a 16-year partnership, highlighted by an Otters’ game on July 8 at 6:35 p.m. against the Joliet Slammers to benefit Jacob’s Village.
The game has usually been in early May on the Otters’ exhibition schedule, but this season, the game will be during a regular season game on Thursday, July 8.
“We would like to invite all of the Evansville community to come out Thursday, July 8, to enjoy exciting Otters baseball, postgame fireworks, and to support a great cause,†Jacob’s Village Development Director Laura Hurt said. “It’s really a fun night!â€
“It’s been a wonderful partnership with the Evansville Otters, and over our 15-year history, we have raised over $200,000 to support people with disabilities.â€
The mission of Jacob’s Village is to develop a safe, walk-able neighborhood community where people with disabilities and older adults can find meaningful relationships, housing that is affordable and accessible, and activities that encourage active minds and bodies.Â
“This will be a fun, family-friendly game. We invite the community to come out on Thursday, July 8 to enjoy exciting Otters baseball, fireworks, free popcorn provided by Wolk Financial, door prizes, Thirsty Thursday, a big half-pot, live DJ, and more!†Hurt added.
