Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins News Release


The Penguins and Senators may be enemies on the ice, but the clubs are teaming up to help out public servants in their respective areas.

The teams will face off on December 3 at the Mohegan Sun Arena, with the Penguins sporting Firefighter themed jerseys, and the Senators donning Police uniforms. Binghamton will host a return match on January 29, when the Penguins will sport Police uniforms, and the Senators will be wearing Firefighter jerseys.

A portion of the proceeds of tickets purchased on December 3 will go to FOUNDATION 58 - an organization which assists firefighters, police offices and other emergency workers who suffer from cancer. The game in Binghamton will see a portion of the proceeds from group ticket sales go to the American Heart Association.

Fans will also be able to bid on the game-worn firefighters jerseys during the December 3 game, with proceeds from the auction going to the Penguins charity fund.

Help support these great causes! Get your seats through the Penguins ticket office at 208-7367 today, or click here for more info on how to order.
