Calgary Hitmen News Release
Calgary, AB - The countdown is on to a world famous event in Calgary. In just two hours, on Sunday, Dec. 1, the Calgary Hitmen will host The ENMAX Teddy Bear Toss. Game time is 4:00 p.m. at the Scotiabank Saddledome with doors opening early at 2:30 p.m.
The Hitmen are calling on hockey fans to help fill the 'Dome. Tickets are still available for as low as $9.99 for kids and $14.99 for adults (plus applicable fees and taxes). They can be purchased at Ticketmaster or the Scotiabank Saddledome box office.
Fans are asked to bring a new or gently used small or medium sized stuffed toy to toss onto the ice when the Hitmen score their first goal against the Red Deer Rebels. Those bears will then be donated to over 70 local agencies this holiday season including the Salvation Army, Calgary Food Bank and Siksika Nation.
The Calgary Zoo is the plush sponsor of the ENMAX Teddy Bear Toss. Calgary Zoo panda teddy bears can be purchased for $20 each on the concourse at section 223, section 211 and inside the NE ticket entrance. Proceeds from every bear sold will be split evenly between the Calgary Zoological Society and the Calgary Hitmen Foundation.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the toss in Calgary with the goal of taking back the world record. The AHL's Hershey Bears set a new mark last season with 34,798 stuffed toys.
