"The IceCaps strive to put our fans first in everything we do because the support they provide us is the envy of just about every team in the American Hockey League," said IceCaps CEO and President Danny Williams. "Our annual FanFest is an opportunity for our organization, and specifically our players, to thank them. I know the players look forward to this event every year."
Admission is free for season-ticket holders (and up to three guests), $5 for a single ticket and $10 for a family pass (up to four people). All tickets are available at the door. Season ticket holders are asked to bring their season ticket holder ID card or other proof of identification to enter. Fans are encouraged to bring used sports equipment to donate to youth sports organizations throughout the province.
Proceeds from the event will go to IceCaps Care and the Williams Family Foundation, which have provided more than $2 million in financial and in-kind donations to charitable organizations, province-wide, over the past three-and-a-half seasons.
The IceCaps begin a six-game home stand this weekend with Friday and Saturday matchups versus the Portland Pirates.
