Name the Team!

Here are the rules:

There is no limit to how many times a single person can submit a new name. In fact, the person who submits the most unique and creative ideas will win a prize!
Each name submittal must be accompanied by the person's name, phone number, email and mailing address.
Space will be provided to explain why the name you submitted should be the winner.
A special focus will be given to names that tie into the unique history of Kenosha. Just a reminder, somebody already came up with the idea to name a team after the great brewing history in our state.
Bribes in the form of cheeseburgers from Kenosha's signature drive in restaurants may or may not affect your chances of winning.
Kenoshanews.com is the only place names can be submitted. Names submitted via any other method will not be eligible for any prizes. Unless the names come hand delivered with a bunch of really great homemade brownies to team offices at Simmons Field.
At the completion of the first phase of the contest the top names will be announced and a vote will take place on Kenoshanews.com for fans to vote for their favorite name.
This summer Kenosha Baseball will host an event at Simmons Field to unveil the winning name and the team logo.
In the event that more than one person submits the winning name, the winning entrants will be entered into a pool with one entrant being selected as the Grand Prize winner. Every person that submits the winning name will be recognized with a permanent plaque to be posted at the renovated, historic Simmons Field.
The Grand Prize will be four 7-Game Ticket Packages for 2014 that includes great seats, ballpark food, soda, guaranteed giveaway items and our "Never-a-wasted-ticket" policy, along with an official team uniform, a plaque at the stadium, and official bragging rights that you named your hometown team for the rest of time.

Local baseball returns to Kenosha

New dugouts and field perimeter brick wall.
