Disabled American Veterans Featured On Frontier League All-Star Jersey

CRESTWOOD, IL — The Windy City ThunderBolts have designated Disabled American Veterans – Chapter 84 as the second non-profit organization that will be represented at the 2023 Frontier League All-Star Game on Wednesday, July 12 at Ozinga Field in Crestwood.

The All-Star Game pits the Frontier League’s East Division against the West Division. Each team will be playing to raise money for Christmas Without Cancer and Disabled American Veterans. The winning team’s charity will receive a $3,000 donation while the losing team’s charity will receive a contribution of $1,000.

All the all-stars from the eight West Division ball clubs voted on what will be wearing special jerseys featuring the DAV logo. Fans can now purchase their own DAV West Division jersey with half of the proceeds going to the organization through May 21. The participating non-profits and jerseys for the July 11 skills competition will be announced in the next few weeks.

For over 100 years, Disabled American Veterans has been providing support to veterans of all generations and their families. Each year, more than one million veterans receive free professional assistance. That includes connecting them with the healthcare, disability, employment, education and financial benefits they have earned through military service. DAV also provides care and emotional support during tough times, advocates for the veteran community on Capitol Hill, connects veterans with meaningful employment, and so much more.

The Frontier League All-Star Game begins at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, July, 12. Gates will open at 4:00 to give fans the chance to watch batting practice and meet the all-stars on the field. The game will be followed by a special fireworks show.
