The FM RedHawks are back and ready to

records, and continue to grow in the Fargo-­
Moorhead area. My most vivid memories
learning how to ride a bike, and going to
baseball games with my family. The FM
RedHawks may not teach you how to
ride a bike, but they provide this area
with some amazing family entertain-­
ment. The games are more than just
professional baseball competition, but
packed with fun promotions, inter-­
active fan activities, party areas,
unique food, and a great place to
soak in the ever so cherished sun!
We are lucky to have a team like
the RedHawks. And look! They
have won back-­to-­back cham-­
pionships in the last two years.
This year, they need us more
than ever with the heightened
challenge of changing leagues.
They need our support to bring
home the third ring in a row! If
you’re anything like me, when
it comes to competition, I like
to win. Lets get together and
help them succeed. We had a
chance to chat with manager
Doug Simunic about the 2011
season and had a great time
in a fun photo shoot with the
team. Enjoy!
