KEIZER, OR — The Salem-Keizer Volcanoes’ long-standing tradition of “Thanking, Honoring and Saluting” members of the military is set for July 4, 2020.
This year’s event will be, as in prior years, held at Volcanoes Stadium in Keizer. Unlike each of the prior tributes, there will not be a Volcanoes baseball game held in conjunction with the evening. Due to COVID-19, the Patriotic Tribute will be a drive-in type of event in the stadium’s parking lot. It will still feature recognition of our military heroes, swearing-in of members to the armed services, a Fallen Warrior memorial and many tributes to those who have defended our country with multiple deployments.
The Volcanoes have become known throughout the region and country for their patriotic tributes. In 2019, the Volcanoes’ Jerry Howard won the National Charles K. Murphy Award for the best Patriotic Tribute in the Nation.
In addition to the patriotic tribute, a concert is being added this year, with Rock-n-Roll tunes by JT & the Tourists.
“In light of all that is going on, we feel it is vital to continue this great tradition and are adding a concert to help lift the spirits of all who will attend,” noted Mickey Walker, CEO for the Volcanoes.
The evening will conclude with a fireworks spectacular presented by McDonald’s and supported by the Volcanoes’ new beverage partner, Coca-Cola.
“Lively Fun Music, Our Military Heroes, Fireworks… what could be better?” concluded Walker.
Gates will open at 5:30 pm.
Concert 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm.
Patriotic Tribute 8:00pm – 9:45pm.
Fireworks 10:00pm.
There will be a limited number of tickets available and they must be purchased in advance of the event online at www.volcanoesbaseball.com
