SAN JOSE, Calif. – The San Jose Earthquakes will host their ninth annual A&W Root Beer Float Night on Saturday, July 27, starting at 5 p.m. PT in the 7UP Epicenter prior to the club’s match against the Colorado Rapids. The Western Conference matchup is scheduled to kick off at 6:45 p.m., presented by Good Humor.
Fans will have delicious A&W Root Beer Floats prepared for them by local women’s soccer leaders, including United States Women’s National Team legend Brandi Chastain, KTVU’s Maureen Naylor, several Quakes Girls’ Academy players and volunteers from the Bay Area Women’s Sports Initiative (BAWSI). The ice cream and soda will be donated by Good Humor and 7UP, respectively.
All fans are asked to make a recommended $5 donation per float, with all proceeds going to BAWSI. BAWSI provides powerful interventions for the most vulnerable children in our communities in the form of activities, connection, contribution, expectations, skills for life and sense of belonging.
Last year’s A&W Root Beer Float Night raised over $5,000 for the Special Olympics Unified Sports Program. Each fan that makes the recommended donation will also receive an A&W souvenir cup while supplies last.
