They say "every dog has its day" and in this case it is "Roanoke Rail Yard Dawgs Day" in the city, as proclaimed by Mayor Sherman Lea at today's Council meeting. Team president Mickey Gray also announced at today's City Council meeting that the Dawgs have signed a 5-year lease extension at the Berglund Center.
The Rail Yard Dawgs are still on fire after winning the President’s Cup on the ice for the first time in franchise history and city leaders are planning a celebration honoring the team’s achievement.
