Northwest League bringing back All-Star Game in 2013; Everett to host

Everett AquaSoxThe Everett AquaSox are hosting the 2013 Northwest League All-Star Game on August 6, 2013, the first time the circuit has held an All-Star Game since 2004, with the plan for it to become an annual event once again.

The All-Star Game celebration will include several other events, including a Homerun Derby and an All-Star Luncheon at Tulalip Resort Casino, with more festivities to be announced in the coming weeks.

“We are thrilled to host the first of these annual Northwest League All-Star games,” said AquaSox Executive Vice-President Tom Backemeyer. “The caliber of talent in the league, and the fact that each team will only host one game every eight years makes this a must-see event.”

AquaSox season-ticket holders, mini-plan holders and sponsors will have first priority to purchase tickets for the 2013 All-Star Game, and all other All-Star game related events. Ticket information, including an all-inclusive Tulalip Resort package, will be released in early October.

“Tulalip Resort Casino has been a great partner of the AquaSox for a number of years,” said Backemeyer, “And we are looking forward to working with them to make this event one to remember.”
