South Carolina Stingrays News Release


North Charleston, SC - The South Carolina Stingrays have teamed up with 98x and the Bridge, Comcast, Kraft, Wal-Mart, Frito Lay, Pepsi and Coke for the First Annual Makin' Noise for the Girls and Boys Night on Saturday, March 15th benefiting the Children's Miracle Network.

"The Children's Miracle Network makes it possible for millions of children to receive the specialized medical care they need and deserve," said Mayor Summey. "This event gives the Lowcountry an opportunity to show its generosity and enrich the lives of the most fragile members of our community."

The game, which includes free parking, begins at 7:05 p.m. at the North Charleston Coliseum against South Division rival Florida Everblades. Each fan entering the Coliseum will receive a Kraft Mac ‘N Cheese "noisemaker" and throughout the game fans will be encouraged to shake them to "Make Noise for the Girls and Boys of CMN." At the conclusion of the game fans can feel free to donate their box of Mac ‘N Cheese in any of the Low Country Food Bank bins on the way out to their cars.

The players will be wearing specialty jerseys that night which will be auctioned off during the game with a raffle auction that concludes at the end of the second intermission. Fans can purchase their raffle tickets for just $1 each on the concourse as well as from volunteers in the stands, and all proceeds from the auction will go back to CMN.

Tickets to the game are being sold at local area Wal-Marts for $10 with 100% of the proceeds going to the Children's Miracle Network. Fans that wish to order their tickets online are encouraged to visit www.stingrayshockey.com and click on the "Special Ticket Offers" button on the left side. The code to purchase tickets is macncheese and $4 from each ticket sold online will be donated back to CMN.

For any additional information on how you can make a difference, including information on purchasing blocks of tickets to be donated and sold at a local Wal-Mart, should contact Steve Ward at the Stingrays front office at 744.2248 x1206 or steven.ward@stingrayshockey.com.
