The annual Community Through Hockey game will be held Saturday and will raise money this year for the Chautauqua County Humane Society.
The Jamestown All-Stars will play the Fredonia All-Stars at the Northwest Arena in Jamestown. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the puck drops at 7:05 p.m. Admission is free to the public.
“We are honored to team up with Eric Herman and Tony Privitera to put on this exciting hockey game to benefit the animals that rely on the Chautauqua County Humane Society,” said Brian Papalia, Chautauqua County Humane Society director of fundraising and communication. “At 6 p.m. we’ll have information and adoptable pets in the lobby, and it’ll be a super fun night that will include some really great baskets donated by volunteers and businesses, and a 50/50 with a prize already worth over $1,500.”
There will also be a very special guest, Brandy, a CCHS alumni who was adopted by Bri Loomis in 2018. Brandy will drop the puck to start the game.
“I’m excited to see how the partnership of Community Through Hockey and the Chautauqua County Humane Society helps the Charity Through Hockey Game grow,” said Eric Herman of Community Through Hockey. “We’ve evolved into a true community event where members of our local adult leagues have now joined the cause and will compete to help the cats and dogs that rely on CCHS services. People don’t need to play hockey or even watch it to come support our fundraising event and have a great time.”
