Athens Rock Lobsters News Release


The Athens Rock Lobsters are proud to host our first-ever First Responders Night on Friday, March 28th, presented by ServPro, as we celebrate the brave men and women who serve our community every day. From EMS to Dispatch, Police Officers to Firefighters, this night is all about honoring the heroes who keep Athens and surrounding counties safe.

Celebrating Our Protectors

We invite fans from across the region to join us at Akins Ford Arena for a night of fast-paced hockey and heartfelt appreciation. First Responders Night is more than just a game-it's a community tribute to those who run toward danger so the rest of us can stay safe.

Whether it's the Athens-Clarke County Fire Department, Barrow County Fire Department, or the many other agencies who serve our towns and cities, we salute you-and this night is for you.

A Jersey That Tells a Story

To mark this special occasion, the Rock Lobsters will unveil a custom replica jersey designed to honor first responders. Here's what makes it stand out:
