Waterloo Black Hawks Set Promotional Schedule

September 25, 2024 - United States Hockey League (USHL)
Waterloo Black Hawks News Release


Waterloo, Iowa - During the Waterloo Black Hawks' 2024/25 home schedule, the organization will celebrate six classic movies, wear four one-of-a-kind jerseys, offer drink specials during all 30 home games, and host one evening with Santa Claus.

Although, who knows? St. Nick might come back unannounced in January and February when he has some down time after the holiday rush.

The Black Hawks released their full 2024/25 promotional schedule on Wednesday. It will be a year filled with both new and familiar reasons to come to Young Arena and cheer on the team.

"Creating the promo schedule is one of the projects we look forward to each season," said Black Hawks President and COO Joe Greene. "There are many nights when our promotions will bring out new people who have never seen a hockey game. Then the effort and excitement our players put into every game will bring those newcomers back and make it easy for them to become long term Black Hawks fans."

The 2024/25 campaign is particularly strong when it comes to promotional giveaways. Some of the highlights in that regard include:

- the team's annual Youth Jersey giveaway on November 15th, presented by Christie Door Company.

- a Black Hawks "Bowl Game Night" on December 29th, when lucky fans will receive a first-of-its-kind Black Hawks cereal bowl.

- Beach Night on February 11th, with a beach towel giveaway presented by Lost Island.

- Paint the Town Red Night, with red t-shirts for all fans in attendance, courtesy of U.S. Bank March 1st.

The Hawks will also help to promote a variety of good causes throughout the year:

- UNI Dance Marathon will raise money for Children's Miracle Network hospitals October 15th and January 31st.

- The Salvation Army of Waterloo/Cedar Falls will host their Red Kettle Campaign Kickoff November 1st.

- Alive & Running Iowa will promote mental health awareness on March 28th.

- Jersey auctions on November 15th, December 7th, February 8th, and March 15th are each expected to raise thousands of dollars for various charitable efforts.

And don't miss Santa Claus. He rides into Young Arena on Sunday, December 8th. Although Santa isn't expected to skate after that 3:05 p.m. contest, other fans can make the most of the opportunity to meet the team on the ice for postgame skating and autographs.

The complete promotional schedule follows below.
