Syracuse Crunch News Release


SYRACUSE, N.Y. - The Syracuse Crunch have announced details of Irish Night, benefiting the St. Patrick's Hunger Project, to be held on Friday, Feb. 26 when the team hosts the Binghamton Senators at 7 p.m.

Crunch fans are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to the game to be donated to the St. Patrick's Hunger Project. All the non-perishable food items collected over the next month will be distributed to the Interreligious Food Consortium and distributed to local pantries. Barrels to collect donations will be stationed in the main lobbies on both sides of the War Memorial Arena. Every dollar raised will help the Food Bank of Central New York to supply two meals to those in need.

A portion of the ticket sales will also benefit the St. Patrick's Hunger Project. To purchase tickets for Irish Night, visit the War Memorial Arena Box Office at 800 South State Street in Syracuse or call the Crunch office at 315-473-4444 and use code word "IRISH."

The mission of the St. Patrick Hunger Project is to help support our community network of hunger-related agencies in meeting the food needs of the individuals and families they serve. By educating Central New Yorkers about An Gorta Mor in Ireland (The Great Hunger), The St. Patrick's Hunger Project hopes to focus the efforts of fellow Syracusans on the need here, in our own community, to fight hunger year 'round, especially during the month of March when food supplies at the agencies are lower.

Syracuse Crunch single game and season tickets are on sale now and can be purchased either in person at the Crunch Box Office located in the War Memorial at 800 South State Street in Syracuse or by calling the office at 315-473-4444.
