Want to give you a night out on them and for a great cause. In maine. “Oct 30th is the Portland Pirates breast and other cancer awareness month. They are so generous to be willing to help others but, they need our help. For Folks who are currently or are a cancer survivor the Portland Pirates office are willing to give... a complementary ticket to you and one other. In return the Portland Pirates would like to help support research for the Maine medical center cancer research institute. So, for any additional people you can get to also go to the game with you, the tickets cost $13 with $3.00 donated to Maine Medical Center’s Cancer Institute.. You need to call Ryan Delaney at the Portland Pirates 828-4665 x309 and let him know how many tickets you need (for yourself and guess). Please forward this to your friends, co-workers, and family. The more people we get to go (remember for a great cause! $3.00 from every ticket!). Thank you for your help and support."Read More
