BOISE HAWKS
The 'Boise Hawks' are a short-season Class A minor league baseball team, located in Boise, Idaho. The team is currently a farm team for the Chicago Cubs.
Boise's original team in the Northwest League was in 1975, as the Boise A's. The team only lasted two seasons, folding after the 1976 season. In 1978, Boise again fielded a team, the independent Boise Buckskins, but after a 23-49 season, the team folded.
The current team was founded in 1987 as an independent member of the Northwest League, and joined the California Angels organization in 1990. In 2001 the Hawks moved their affiliation to the Cubs.
The Hawks play their home games at Memorial Stadium in Garden City, Idaho. The 4,500 seat facility, on the banks of the Boise River, opened in 1989 for the Hawks' third season. The stadium was privately built by an investor group led by Bill Pereira and son Cord Pereira. For their first two seasons (1987-1988), the Hawks played their home games at Bill Wigle Field on the campus of Borah High School.
The team is owned by Dan Walker, one of the co-founders Horizon Broadcast Group, along with other investors. Hawks games are heard on the radio on 1350 KTIK-AM.
