The Milwaukee Admirals will usher in a new chapter in team history and unveil a new logo and jerseys on Wednesday, July 15 at 6 p.m. at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
The team's current "skeleton" logo is nearly 10 years old as it was launched for the 2006-07 season.
Wednesday's "All Aboard" event is free to attend and open to the general public. It will feature appearances by current Admirals Felix Girard and Jonathan Diaby, assistant coach Stan Drulia and past Admiral stars including Danny Lecours, Phil Wittliff, Carl Valimont, and Fred Berry.
There will be a fashion show to reveal the new jerseys and other merchandise, all of which will be available at the event. In addition, there will be complimentary food and non-alcoholic drinks, as well has fun activities for kids and meet-and-greet opportunities with the current and former players.
The event is scheduled to run from 6 to 8 p.m., with the program to introduce the new logo beginning at 6:30. Fans should enter the building through the Potawatomi Gate, which is located at the northeast corner of the building.
The Admirals open their 2015-16 home schedule on Friday, Oct. 16 at 7 p.m. at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
