The Chicago Wolves will wear special St. Patrick's Day jerseys, sponsored by Jewel-Osco, at home games on Sun. March 11; Wed., March 14; and Sat., March 17. The Wolves and Jewel-Osco have teamed up to donate nearly three-hundred thousand dollars for charity through the St. Patrick's Day jersey auction and raffle over the past 11 years.

Fans can also purchase a $5 raffle ticket for the opportunity to win one of the remaining four jerseys, chosen exclusively by fan voting on chicagowolves.com from a pool of seven players: forwards Andre Deveaux, Steve Martins and Colin Stuart, and defensemen Andy Delmore, Brian Fahey, Brian Sipotz and Jimmy Sharrow.
