Quad/Graphics today announced its support of the new Fond du Lac Dock Spiders baseball team with a three-year founding partnership. The Northwoods League, consisting of 20 semi-professional teams from Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota and Illinois, is welcoming the Dock Spiders as its newest team for the 2017 season. Quad/Graphics is one of five organizations partnering with the Dock Spiders as founding sponsors.

 

Consistent with its ongoing efforts to support community initiatives across the region, Quad/Graphics’ status as a founding partner for the team provides opportunities to connect its 7,500 employees in Wisconsin with unique family-friendly activities. A full schedule of Quad-related Dock Spiders events includes Quad/Graphics Giveaway Day, scheduled for Sunday, June 4, where game attendees will receive a Quad/Graphics and Fond du Lac Dock Spiders branded baseball. Throughout the season, the company’s season tickets will be provided as a thank you to employees who achieve perfect attendance to work.

 

“We are thrilled to support the Dock Spiders as a founding partner because it gives us the opportunity to reward our employees while connecting with the community in a new way,” said Joe Gitter, Plant Director for Quad/Graphics’ Lomira facility. “This effort, along with our upcoming Quad/Graphics 5K Fun Run/Walk supporting Salute the Troops, is part of our ongoing emphasis on supporting families, promoting health and wellness, and serving as an active member of the community.”

 

In further support of the team, QuadPackaging is printing and donating 2,000 carriers for the new Dock Spiders Pale Ale, a craft brew created by Fox River Brewing Company. The American-style pale ale is available at retailers across the region and at the Dock Spiders stadium at Herr-Baker Field on the campus of Marian University.  QuadPackaging, headquartered in Franklin, provides a wide range of collaborative packaging solutions for brand owners and retailers.
