Season tickets and donor benefits have been mailed
STATESBORO, Ga. - The Georgia Southern Athletic Foundation and Ticket Office announced today that donor benefits and season tickets for the much-anticipated Eagle football season have been mailed, and fans should expect to receive them next week.
These items were mailed separately. Donor and ticket account balances must be up-to-date before benefits and tickets will be mailed. Donor benefits mailers will include a 2015-16 Eagle Fund license plate, decal and a luggage tag. Bronze Eagles and above will also receive a '2015' for their donor plaque.
New for this season, Eagle fans who purchased their Eagle football season tickets before July 1 will receive a high-quality, organized booklet containing their 2015 Eagle football season tickets, a letter from head coach Willie Fritz, stadium guidelines and policies and a special "Rings, Diplomas and Leaders" page highlighting student-athletes.
For those who purchased parking, their donor parking pass(es) will also be included in the season ticket booklet. Also new for this season, unlike previous home games, each game will now require a parking pass specifically for that game.
"We are striving to improve and give Eagle fans the best customer service and fan experience possible and it is our hope that this season's ticket and parking booklet is a step in the right direction," said David Cutler, director of ticket operations.
For those interested in purchasing season tickets, they are still on sale. Season ticket packages start as low as $75 - which is a savings of over $100 to watch the Eagles battle their way to Georgia Southern's first bowl game in program history!
It is important that all of Eagle Nation helps to #PackPaulson this season as Georgia Southern Eagle Football looks have another record-breaking season. Fans are being challenged to remind their friends, co-workers and family to "Join the Journey" as the Ticket Office nears its goal of 7,000 season ticket holders before the season starts in a few short weeks.
The Athletic Foundation currently supports over 400 student-athletes who play in one of the 17 Division I varsity programs at Georgia Southern University. Contributions to the Eagle Fund helps the Foundation's "Rings, Diplomas and Leaders" initiative which makes it possible for these students to compete for a championship ring and earn a college education while developing them as future leaders in their respective communities.
"Georgia Southern student-athletes could not succeed without the continued support of our donors. We are grateful for those who have joined our journey and share our vision," said Kevin Bostian, executive director of the Athletic Foundation.
For those who can't make it to all of the games, the Georgia Southern Ticket Office will accept unused ticket donations and distribute them to veterans, underserved youth and charitable organizations.
