Hockey Holidays: Battalion Features Special Promotions Saturday
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Santa and slap shots collide on Saturday evening when the Berkshire Battalion plays its last home game of 2014 at the Peter W. Foote Vietnam Veterans Memorial Rink.
An visit from St. Nicholas will be one of the attractions when the Battalion takes on Federal Hockey League rival Danbury at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday.
It also is WUPE/WNAW Night at the rink, and the team is running a promotion on its Facebook page. Visit the page and like the photo indicated for a chance to win a free ticket to the game and a shot at up to $250.
During the second intermission of Saturday night's game, McCann Tech junior Mike Bloom Jr., a member of Wahconah's Western Mass championship hockey team, will take penalty shots on WUPE radio personality Bob Heck.
For each goal Bloom scores, the winner of the Facebook promotion will take home $50.
The winner of that promotion will be named on Friday, and as of noon on Wednesday, there were 85 likes.
Not a lucky winner? That's OK. There are plenty of other promotions going as the Battalion celebrates the holiday season.
Battalion Kids Club members get in free if they preregister by emailing hlane@berkshirebattalion.com. And check out the Battalion Kids Club's own Facebook page while you're at it.
Anyone — young or old — can purchase a special Battalion Holiday Pack: six tickets for $60 plus coupons from Village Pizza and Freight Yard Pub.
