NYSCOPBA TO OFFER FREE TICKET TO OVER 2,000 LOCAL YOUTH HOCKEY PLAYERS

Glens Falls, NY –The Adirondack Thunder, proud ECHL affiliate of the Calgary Flames, have partnered with NYSCOPBA, the New York State Correctional Officers and Police Benevolence Association Inc, to offer a free ticket to all youth hockey players who come to Saturday’s game, courtesy of NYSCOPBA.

As a part of NYSCOPBA Night on Saturday, April 2, all youth hockey players can get free admission to the game, thanks to the generosity of NYSCOPBA. Youth Hockey Players can get a free ticket at the Adirondack Thunder offices until 4:00 p.m. Saturday afternoon and at the game from 4:00 p.m. through 7:00 p.m. outside the Civic Center at the NYSCOPBA table. All youth hockey family and friends can purchase tickets for $11 to Saturday’s game only.

“We’d like to thank NYSCOPBA for their generosity in this promotion and for going above and beyond to make their sponsor night one of our best games of the season,” Adirondack Thunder President Brian Petrovek said. “Supporting youth hockey has been one of our biggest commitments this season and the free ticket promotion is the icing on the cake for a late season game as the team battles towards a Kelly Cup playoff berth.”
