No surprise that the Omaha Storm Chasers (Class AAA; Pacific Coast League) are already out of the gate with a 2016 Werner Park improvement, as the team unveils a new party patio for the concourse.

The Storm Chasers seem to always add something new to the mix for Werner Park annually. This year will see a new Sun Valley Party Patio. The new addition will provide a comfortable backyard-themed area for hosting company outings and group picnics during Storm Chasers home games in 2016. A permanent set for the Storm Chasers Live Pre-Game Show, presented by Sun Valley Landscaping, will also be built into the area.

The Sun Valley Party Patio will feature with a brick and stone infrastructure and a three-burner gas fire pit. Located next to the Budweiser Downdraft Bar near the recently upgraded Werner Park videoboard, the Patio features space 75 to 100 guests.

“The Sun Valley Party Patio is designed to be the ultimate outdoor experience in all of baseball,” said Sun Valley Landscaping CEO and Partner Paul Fraynd. “We hope to the combine the experience of the relaxing around a backyard fire pit with the excitement of enjoying a great seat at a baseball game.”

“It is going to be an incredible setting,” Omaha Storm Chasers President and General Manager Martie Cordaro added. “It is another example of our commitment to build on community partnerships that enable us to make Werner Park a premier destination in the Omaha Metro.”

Last year, of course, the Storm Chasers added an upgraded high-def videoboard at Werner Park in anticipation of hosting the 2015 Triple-A All-Star Game.
