THUNDER BAY – The Thunder Bay Border Cats are appealing to the public to consider becoming a host family for the 2024 Northwoods League season.
A host family houses one of the team’s players during his time with the Border Cats, providing a bedroom and one to two meals a day while the player is in town.
The team plays 36 games at Port Arthur Stadium and another 36 games on the road, from late May to early August.
"The Border Cats host family program is vital to the success of our organization. Having been a host family member myself, it is a very rewarding experience and the commitment is not as large as some people assume, so we hope the community will step up and lend their support,” said team vice-president Bryan Graham.
Host families receive free tickets to all Border Cats games, a $250 grocery gift card, a discount on team merchandise and more, Graham added.
