The Flying Squirrels have unveiled two comic-themed images of Nutzy which will be featured across all of the club's marketing and branding for the 2011 season.

"Nutzy has been one of the most identifiable members of the Flying Squirrels organization," said Vice President & COO Todd "Parney" Parnell. "From the moment we introduced him in February, he was an instant hit with adults and kids alike. As we prepare for our second season in Richmond, we want to build Nutzy's celebrity status and making him the centerpiece of our branding will help accomplish that."

The Richmond Flying Squirrels, Double-A affiliate of the 2010 World Series Champion San Francisco Giants, are pleased to announce an expanded roster of customizable mini-plan options for their second season at The Diamond. Mini-plans are immediately available and can be purchased by calling the Flying Squirrels at (804) 359-FUNN (3866). The Flying Squirrels have also released individual game ticket prices for the 2011 season. Individual game tickets will be available for purchase in March, 2011.

"We saw a tremendous response to our brand of affordable, family-friendly entertainment during our inaugural season at The Diamond," said Flying Squirrels' Vice President & COO Todd "Parney" Parnell. "We are thrilled to be able to continue to offer that affordability, while expanding our options for fans as well as increasing our promotional and overall efforts."

Ahhh, Labor Day. For lots of kids headed back to school it's their last weekend of freedom. But even if you've already started back to the ol' grind it's still a long weekend for you to get out there and enjoy the summer sun. If you're looking to start your Labor Day off right, head over to the Tears for Fears show at The National Sunday night at 8:00pm. Tickeys are $42.50, but "c'mon....I'm talkin' to you...c'mon!" (You know you love their song "Shout.")
If you'd rather start the par-tay on Monday, check out the Richmond Flying Squirrels in their last game of the season as they take on the Bowie Baysocks with a 12:05 start time. After you cheer on our favorite baseball team, head on over to Capital Ale House for $1 burger night!

The Richmond Flying Squirrels will open up their last home stand of the season with a Back to School Night against the Bowie Baysox on Friday, September 3rd.
