On Saturday evening, June 18, our friends at Transplant Wisconsin will be hosting their first ever Organ Donation Awareness Night with the Madison Mallards baseball team. They are playing Wisconsin Rapids that night, and the game starts at 6:05 pm at the recently renovated Duck Pond Stadium at Warner Park. This is the Mallards first Saturday night home game of the season and there will be fireworks after the game to really spice things up. OPO volunteers will be handing out donor registry information cards to fans as they enter the stadium that evening. TWI will have a booth near the entrance gate and Dottie will be in attendance, as well as being on the field with Maynard the Mallard for a couple of promos during the game. You won't want to miss Maynard in his new DONATE super-hero cape, or miss the opportunity to get your photo taken with Dottie, or behind our new super-size Wisconsin drivers license. We have a recipient who will be throwing out the first pitch that night, along with some catchy PA announcements and radio commercials. A short video that was done by liver recipient Erin Davisson (achor at WFRV-TV in Green Bay) will also be shown on their new video screen.
