Tickets can be purchaced there for the price of $10.00, along with tickets on game day there will be raffles of BlackHawk autographed sticks, a jersey,and pucks by present and former Hawks.($5.00 each).

At this time I do not have a final list of Black Hawk Alum that will be playing, However, the usual suspects who often generously give their time to alumni events are; Jack O'Callahan, Steve Konroyd, Steve Poast, Jerry Korab, Dave Mackey, Cliff Korroll, Peter Marsh, Reg Kerr, Jose Charbonneau, Grant Mulvey, and Troy Murray.

The goal of this event is to raise funds for the ADA, as regular readers of my blog know, besides photography, I am a nurse. In my other professional life I see the effects of diabetes on a daily basis on patients and their families. If present trends continue this disease has the potential to bankrupt the public health system and force private insurance out of the reach of many others. Our best hope for a cure and prevention comes through research, often founded by the ADA. So if you are looking for a fun afternoon of hockey, with some great action and a worthy cause, remember March 2nd Oakton Park Arena 2:00 pm. Be there or be square!
