FLINT, MI - The Flint Generals of the United Hockey League take the ice in exhibition action hosting the Port Huron Beacons on Thursday, October 7, 2004 at Perani Arena beginning at 7:05 p.m. Flint will participate in three exhibition contests during the week. The Beacons will be in town once again on Saturday, October 9, 2004 at 7:35 p.m. The Generals host the Jr. Generals in a benefit game on Friday, October 8, 2004 at Perani Arena with proceeds to benefit the area youth hockey programs. A $5.00 donation is requested for the benefit game.

"This week it is really time for us to go to work," said Vice President & Head Coach, Robbie S. Nichols. "Players will be battling for a position on this team and we need to see what some can do in a game situation against Port Huron in both games. Friday night is a special night for youth hockey," continued Nichols.

"The benefit game against the Jr. Generals is a very important fund-raiser to provide youngsters a chance to play organized hockey, to learn the fundamentals, and to have fun. It will also give some of our players a chance for additional ice to be ready for the remainder of training camp in preparation for the regular season. We hope everyone will come out for this special fundraiser to help all youngsters who want to play ice hockey in the near future."
