KANNAPOLIS — Help a student, get a free ticket to the ball game.
The Kannapolis Intimidators have teamed up with Walmart to host Back to School Night on Friday, featuring a school tools donation.
Fans who donate three school supplies at the box office will receive a free general admission ticket to that night’s game against the Greensboro Grasshoppers. Gates open at 6 p.m. with first pitch at 7:05 p.m.
School supplies will be donated to Communities in Schools North Carolina. Area Walmart stores are encouraging customers to “build a backpack” for elementary, middle and high school students as the new school year gets underway.
Items collected through this drive will then be distributed to public school students in need.
