Texas Stars News Release


CEDAR PARK, Texas - The Texas Stars, American Hockey League affiliate of the NHL's Dallas Stars, announced today the details of their fourth annual H-E-B Food Drive Night to benefit the Capital Area Food Bank of Texas this Wednesday, Dec. 3, prior to the team's game against the Utica Comets at 7:30 p.m.

The Stars' H-E-B Food Drive will begin at 10 a.m. in the East Lobby of Cedar Park Center and will run until the opening puck drop at 7:30 p.m. Fans who donate eight or more non-perishable food items will receive a voucher for a free ticket to Wednesday's game and the fan who makes the single largest food donation will win a Texas Stars suite night.

Every fan who donates will be entered to win prizes, including autographed Stars memorabilia. Once the arena doors open to fans at 6:30 p.m., food will be collected at each of the three Cedar Park Center entrances until game time.

Since its inception during the 2011-12 season, the Texas Stars Annual H-E-B Food Drive has brought in over 4,500 items weighing over 2.5 tons -- the equivalent of more than 4,300 meals donated to the Capital Area Food Bank.

While Wednesday's game is the official H-E-B Food Drive Night, the Stars also collect food throughout the season on their H-E-B Nights, which occur on every weekday game of the season (Monday-Thursday). Fans can bring any H-E-B brand non-perishable food item to the Cedar Park Center Box Office to save $5 off their ticket purchase.

In addition to the food drive, Wednesday's game will also be a Winning Wednesday and a Raising Cane's Challenge for fans in attendance. If the Stars win, everyone attending receives a free ticket to the game on Dec. 10, and if the Stars score three or more goals, fans can show their ticket stubs for Buy One, Get One free combos at any Raising Cane's location.

The Texas Stars entered the 2014-15 season as the AHL's defending Calder Cup Champions. Single-game tickets and season ticket packages for the 2014-15 campaign are on sale now. For more information, call (512) GO-STARS (467-8277) or visit TexasStarsHockey.com.
