F-M RedHawks to become Fargo Woodchippers for 30 year anniversary
FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) — The Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks are set to celebrate their 30 year anniversary this upcoming season – and when they do, they’ll not be the RedHawks for a few games.
The team will be playing five games as the Fargo-Moorhead Woodchippers – in honor, of course, of the Coen Brothers’ 1996 cinematic masterpiece.
The team will wear special black and yellow Woodchippers jerseys and caps for the games.
A host of custom Woodchippers and Midwest-themed merchandise is available in the RedHawks Team Store at Newman Outdoor Field and online at fargowoodchippers.shop.
Game-worn jerseys will be available for auction during the season.
“It’s been a couple of years in the making. This was definitely one of our top choices as far as an alternate identity. And the years and everything kind of worked out,” said Karl Hoium, General Manager.
The Woodchippers will make their debut on Friday, June 12, against the Winnipeg Goldeyes with postgame fireworks following the game, then return on July 10, July 22, Aug. 11 and Aug. 29.
