Salute to Heroes Night with the Bakersfield Condors

On November 12th, 2011 the Wounded Heroes Fund sponsored the event "Salute to Heroes Night with the Bakersfield Condors". All attendees who presented a valid military I.D. (active or retired) received up to 6 complementary terrace level tickets for the game. Condor players wore jerseys which were auctioned off after the game. Each jersey commemorated the 10th Anniversary of  9-11 and recognition of Seal Team Six. All proceeds benefited the Wounded Heroes Fund. Visit www.BakersfieldCondors.com for more Condors information.
