March 21, 2009: Dash Names its Mascot

Boltb

The new baseball team, the Dash, announced its mascot in the newspaper on this date in 2009.  The new mascot will be named “Bolt,” continuing the theme of quickness in movement.

The look of Bolt was not announced at this time, and this photo shows Bolt during a baseball game in 2012.

During a baseball game at BB&T Field, Bolt is everywhere.  He greets people as they come into the park, he poses for numerous photos, he plays with the children, he dances and generally entertains throughout the entire baseball game.
