Brewers
returning program to teach basics to women
July 3, 2009
MILWAUKEE - The Milwaukee Brewers are conducting their
popular program that teaches the basics of baseball to
women for a third straight season.
The Brewers are partnering with the University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee's School of Continuing Education to
offer "Brewers Baseball Basics for Women." The two-day
instructional session sold out quickly in each of the
previous two years. It's scheduled this year for Aug. 27
and Aug. 29.
The program's first night will be held at the downtown
UWM School of Continuing Education and include assistant
general manager Gord Ash and other Brewers personnel
who'll share their experiences with the game.
On Saturday, Aug. 29, the 80 participants will have a
full day of activities before a game that night. The
cost of the program is $140.
