The annual EMU Night with the Turks event is set to light up Harrisonburg on July 16 at 7 p.m., bringing together fans of the university and the local baseball team for a night of sport, giveaways, and community spirit.
A Tradition Revived
Supporters who sport EMU apparel will receive free admission to the game, a perk that has become a hallmark of the event. The evening will feature a variety of giveaways, including EMU T‑shirts, maracas, and clappers, adding to the festive atmosphere.
The highlight of the night will be a Valley Baseball League showdown between the Harrisonburg Turks and the Waynesboro Generals. The Turks, established in 1915, have long been a staple of the league and have seen numerous players advance to Major League Baseball.

This marks the fourth consecutive year of the partnership between EMU and the Turks, underscoring a growing collaboration that benefits both the university and the local baseball community.
