Portion of advance ticket, puck sales on Feb. 4 will benefit Libraries’ six locations
HENDERSON, Nev. – The Henderson Libraries Foundation has partnered with the Las Vegas Wranglers hockey team in a fundraiser to benefit the Henderson Libraries’ six locations.
The Foundation is selling advance tickets to the Wranglers vs. Alaska Aces game, which will take place at 7:05 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 4, at the Orleans Arena, 4500 W. Tropicana Ave. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased from the Henderson Libraries Foundation by calling Matt Hortt or Trudy Casey at 702-492-6580 or emailing Matt at mhortt@hdpl.org through Wednesday, Feb. 1. A percentage from each ticket will be awarded to the foundation, the nonprofit, fundraising organization that supports Henderson Libraries.
The Chuck-A-Puck Program allows fans to purchase pucks to throw onto the ice during the game’s intermission at each home game to win Wranglers prizes. The foundation will sell pucks for $2 each or six pucks for $10 at the game and will receive 30 percent of the night’s sales in addition to tickets purchased in advance.
The money raised will go toward the building the book and other library material collections at the six Henderson Libraries locations.
