The Winnipeg Goldeyes' Field of Dreams Foundation and Pointstreak 5050 set to hit a Home Run
Apr 24th, 2012 |
On May 29th, the Winnipeg Goldeyes will open their 2012 season with an exciting addition for all their fans and the Winnipeg Goldeyes Field of Dreams Foundation as they will debut the new Pointstreak 5050 raffling platform at all home games. Andrew Collier, General Manager of the Goldeyes stated, “we are tremendously excited to introduce the Pointstreak 5050 automated raffling system to our fans this season. We’ve all witnessed the tremendous success of the system at Winnipeg Jets games this season and we know our fans will be equally excited. More importantly however, the funds raised will be used to support our Field of Dreams Foundation which has supported Children’s Charities in Manitoba since 1995. Thanks to the support of our fans we anticipate being able to fund even more charities than we have in the past and we could not be happier or more proud.”
Pointstreak’s Senior VP of Baseball Operations Paul Pettipiece was equally proud to be a part of this great program. “From the day we first met with the Goldeyes, their commitment to their Field of Dreams Foundation was paramount. Pointstreak 5050 is indeed proud to be part of this commitment. At Pointstreak 5050 the greatest thing we do is help others who are in need. Our platform has helped to generate millions of dollars to help people in cities across North America. We take this mission very seriously and never lose sight of the fact that we are part of something that is much bigger than ourselves.”
