Alpena IceDiggers News Release


Alpena, MI- The Alpena IceDiggers are trading in their pads and sticks for aprons and towels for the 1st Annual "Tip-The-Team" Night. The event to be held Thursday, March 2, 2006 from 5-8 p.m. at the Twin Acres 19th Hole in Alpena, this event is going to feature current IceDigger players as servers, greeters and bus boys.

All "Tips" for the evening will be donated to the Alpena Hockey Association to award one youngster the IceDigger Hockey Scholarship and give that recipient the chance to be a part of the Alpena Hockey Association's 2006-07 season. "This is a great opportunity for the community to come out and see the players outside of their uniforms and in a fun, relaxing environment and enjoy some great food", Head Coach Kenny Miller states. "It's also a great opportunity to give a possible future IceDigger a chance to play hockey, when he or she maybe had no other chance." The Hockey Scholarship will be used to help offset the cost of dues for the Alpena Hockey Association membership.

Any tips given directly to Digger players or donated at the door will be used for the scholarship. Digger players will also be available for pictures and autographs.

The 19th Hole will donate 10% of all sales back to the IceDiggers scholarship fund to help benefit youth hockey.
