The winner of each group of children will receive a turkey for their Thanksgiving meal. Local businesses as well as many people in the community donated the turkeys.

Saturday, November 27th - Join the Condors as they host the Victoria Salmon Kings for the sixth annual Teddy Bear Toss sponsored by 29 Eyewitness News, HOT 94.1, & Well Fargo Bank. All fans are encouraged to bring a teddy bear, or other stuffed animal, to be thrown on the ice when the Condors score their first goal of the game. An amazing record of 6,143 stuffed animals were collected last season with nearly 20,000 collected in the history of the event. The stuffed animals will be collected and donated to less-fortunate children through the United Way of Kern County. The night is also the first Big Buddies Night of the season. Underprivileged children will be given the opportunity to attend the game for free thanks to local organizations and the Active 20/30 Club of Bakersfield.
