Hockey-Thon: March 19 - March 20, 2010

After former Condors/ Fog defenseman Kevin Barrett lost his mother to inflammatory breast cancer, he came up with the idea for the Hockey-thon, an ice hockey marathon running around the clock in which local players could participate to raise money for charity. Local players of all ages and skill levels would skate through the night and fill the time between two Condors games to raise money for breast cancer.

Barrett joined forces with the Condors to create the Hockey-Thon, which is now in its 6th season and has been an overwhelming success, raising over $203,000 in the event's history. Links for Life, a local breast cancer resource center, is once again the recipient of the proceeds raised.

To participate in the Hockey-Thon, players can register by clicking the link below, then print out the donations sheet and begin collecting pledges. A minimum of $200 is required to play. All participants will play in several games during the event and have the satisfaction of fighting for a noble cause. Everyone also will receive two tickets to the Condors games on Mar. 19 and Mar. 20, while the top three pledge collectors will split 15 lower level tickets to a Los Angeles Kings game, with transportation included. The first 200 sign-ups will receive a free 6th Annual Condors Fight Cancer Hockey-Thon jersey.

Roster / Schedule for 03/19/10 - 03/20/10

To participate in the Hockey-Thon, each player needs to raise a minimum of $200.

All money must be turned in upon arrival at the Bakersfield Ice Sports Center, before you receive your commemorative jersey and in order to play. Checks should be made out to Links for Life.
