From the Growlers:
"For the first time ever, the Kalamazoo Growlers are asking for support from the fans to help 'Fight The Flood'. Homer Stryker Field has fallen victim to severe flooding and the Growlers are asking fans to support the team by either donating to the flood clean GoFundMe or by purchasing tickets to the first game back from the flood on Saturday, July 20th with the 'Fight The Flood' ticket package. The Kalamazoo Growlers flood cleanup fund donation will go towards draining and cleaning the ballpark, allowing the Growlers to continue the 2024 season."
