Around the MWL (2/17)

Trips to Pohlman Field just got a little duller:

Neuman Leaves Snappers; VanDyck Fills Front Office Roster Spot

Jeremy Neuman, Director of Community and Media Relations for the Beloit Professional Baseball Association, Inc. is leaving the team after four seasons. Joining the front office is former Snappers intern Erik VanDyck.

Neuman first joined the Snappers Organization during the 2003 season as an intern. He was promoted to his current position in September, 2004. Neuman, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, has accepted a Program Director position within the YMCA organization.

“It was a difficult decision to leave this organization,” Neuman said. “I enjoyed my time here and leave with many great memories of the people associated with this organization.”


The Loons have a plan

70 Nights of Fun
Ten fireworks nights, a post-game concert series and a chance to win $50,000 are just some of the promotions scheduled for the inaugural season of the Great Lakes Loons. Today, Chris Mundhenk, Loons’ Assistant General Manager of Marketing and Promotions, released a list of the nightly promotions for home games, starting with the home opener April 13 and extending through the last game September 3, 2007.

But, what about the day games? Won't those be fun? 70 Games of Fun is more accurate, but isn't as catchy, I guess.

MWL Champs to have a Grand exhibition:
