Tulsa Oilers News Release
TULSA, OK- The Tulsa Oilers of the Central Hockey League will be holding a Food and Coat Drive at their games this Friday against the Oklahoma City Blazers and Saturday against the Wichita Thunder. For every non-perishable food item or coat donated, fans will receive $2.00 off a ticket for that night's game. Oilers players' wives or girlfriends will be collecting the donations at the door prior to each night's game.
On Monday, December 23rd, Oiler players will be traveling to a pair of day shelters for the homeless to distribute the items donated by Oilers fans. At 1:00 p.m., the Oilers will be at the Tulsa Day Center for the Homeless located at 415 W. Archer in downtown Tulsa. From there, they will spread their holiday cheer to the Madonna House located at 749 N. Denver around 1:45. Members of the media are invited to attend either location, as the Oilers look to make the holiday season a little brighter for those less fortunate.
The Oilers will host the Blazers on Friday night at 7:35 and the Thunder on Saturday night at 7:35 and the team will wear special Christmas jerseys to commemorate the holiday season. Friday night is Oklahoma Highway Safety Night, as the first 1,500 fans through the door will receive a team poster of the Oilers. Following Saturday night's game, the special Christmas jerseys will be auctioned off to the fans. Tickets for both games are available at local Drug Marts, the Tulsa Convention Center Box Office, the Oilers office, or by phone at 584-2000.
