Portland Winterhawks News Release


The Portland Winterhawks host two of the season's biggest promotional nights this weekend at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum: the Les Schwab Teddy Bear Toss on Saturday, December 1st and Fred Meyer Hawks Fight Hunger the following Day on Sunday, December 2nd.

Details on each event are below:

Saturday, December 1: Les Schwab Teddy Bear Toss, 6 p.m. in the VMC

Limited tickets remain for one of the most popular promotions of the year, Saturday's Les Schwab Teddy Bear Toss game. Fans bring teddy bears and other stuffed animals to the game and throw them onto the ice when the Winterhawks score their first goal. Players will then deliver teddy bears while on visits at local children's charities, hospitals, and schools. The remaining bears will be given away to local charitable organizations just in time for the holidays.
