Trash Pandas partner with Los Angeles Angels for ‘Trash Panda for a Day’ youth program

MADISON —The “Trash Panda For a Day” program is launching this season in partnership with the Los Angeles Angels on an exciting initiative to support youth in the community.

Each month, one elementary or middle school student will have the opportunity to spend a day with the Rocket City Trash Pandas, experiencing the thrill of being part of something greater.

“We are excited to partner with the Angels for this incredible initiative that truly reflects the values of our organization — creating lasting memories for everyone in our community,” said Trash Pandas Executive Vice President Lindsey Knupp. “We encourage everyone to nominate deserving individuals who you believe should be a Trash Panda for a Day.”

In the program, participants will be introduced to the team by Manager Andy Schatzley, receive an Angels apparel bag, hang out and shag balls during batting practice, and take batting practice on the field at the end. They will also sit in on a Ball Talk session, share a meal with the team, get autographs, and attend the game, creating unforgettable memories and fostering a sense of belonging.
