The Silvertips will be hosting a Fire Safety Night on this Saturday's game against the Kelowna Rockets. A fire truck as well as other safety vehicles will be on premises in front of Comcast Arena for you to check out before you head to your seats. On the concourse we'll be featuring tables with fire safety information and special giveaways that promote a safe and healthy living environment.

City of Snohomish Night - Saturday, February 21st vs Kelowna

We'll be paying homage to the city of Snohomish this Saturday night against the Kelowna Rockets as several city dignitaries will be on hand to mix and mingle with the Comcast Arena crowd. Residents of Snohomish will be chosen from the crowd to take part in between- period entertainment on the ice, so we hope that all Silvertips fans living in Snohomish check out this Saturday's game against the talented Kelowna Rockets!

City of Lake Stevens Night - Friday, February 27th vs Tri-City

If you live in Lake Stevens, you're going to want to represent your city at Comcast Arena on Friday February 27th as part of our tribute to Snohomish County! Many of the Silvertips live in Lake Stevens, so we hope to get wonderful support from just across the trestle!

Youth Hockey Night - Saturday, February 28th vs Vancouver

For all the young hockey players in Snohomish, King and Skagit Counties, we hope you'll celebrate Youth Hockey Day with the Silvertips during the Saturday, February 28th game against the rival Vancouver Giants.

City of Marysville Night - Saturday, February 28th vs Vancouver

Marysville has provided tremendous support for the Silvertips throughout the history of the franchise, so we decided to honor the city with a special community-themed night. We've already visited two Marysville elementary schools this week, and this effort will culminate with our "City of Marysville" night on Saturday, February 28th against the Vancouver Giants, where we'll pay tribute to the city that has supported the Silvertips since day one.
