MILWAUKEE - The Milwaukee Ticket Department has announced a pair of upcoming ticket promotions for the 2017-18 season.
 
The first is a community organization program called "Hoops for the Holidays". The directive allows non-profit organizations within the Milwaukee community to attend men's or women's basketball games as a group outing.
 
Tickets will be complimentary to the community organization by bringing a group of at least 25 fans to a pre-selected Panther game. Organizations are asked to fill out the designated form from the UWM Athletics website.
 
"We see this program as a way to help give back to the community," Director of Athletics Amanda Braun said. "Our staff and student-athletes work hand-in-hand with numerous organizations throughout the area over the course of the school year and this will give us the opportunity to interact with them in a different and entertaining environment."
 
Interested fans can find that form HERE.
 
The second program is for UWM Faculty and Staff, who can join the Panthers for the First Annual "UWM Student for a Day" Game on December 22.
 
Faculty and staff will have the opportunity to receive up to four free tickets for the Milwaukee men's basketball game against Western Michigan. There is also the opportunity to sit in the student section and cheer on the Panthers with the band and the student section. All participants will also receive a free t-shirt (based on size availability and while supplies last).
 
This opportunity will be available with a toy donation – with all toys gathered headed to the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin – and following that up by filling out the following form HERE.
 
Any questions can be directed to the ticket office at 414-229-5886 or uwmtix@uwm.edu.
