Grab your summer gear and get ready for a three-day head-to-head with the Dash’s cross-town rivals, the Greensboro Grasshoppers.

Hitting home field tomorrow, July 18 at Truist Stadium, this weekend series features splash-tacular themes including:

  • Friday: Scouts Night + Fireworks — post-game fireworks and an on-field sleepover for scouts
  • Saturday: Youth Cap Giveaway for the first 1,000 fans ages 14 and under, plus spicy pepper games with the Dash’s Pepper Dash Racers (and more fireworks)
  • Sunday: Cool down at Super Splash Day with slides, sprinklers, and ballpark water games.
