ESTERO, FL – The Annual IBERIABANK Teddy Bear Toss game is set for this Saturday (December 10) at 7:00 p.m. at Germain Arena when the Everblades play host to the Elmira Jackals.
Fans are asked to bring a new teddy bear or stuffed animal to Saturday’s game. When the Everblades score their first goal, fans may toss the teddy bears out onto the ice to celebrate. The teddy bears and stuffed animals will be collected and distributed to local children’s charities across Southwest Florida for the holiday season.
Last year, the team collected and distributed nearly 7,000 teddy bears to local charities, including the Golisano Children’s Hospital.
To go with the holiday theme, the team will be wearing special “ugly sweater” jerseys (pictured below) this weekend which will be auctioned off following Saturday’s game.
This is the sixth straight year that IBERIABANK has been the presenting sponsor of this great event. IBERIABANK has over a dozen locations serving the Southwest Florida community. To view locations CLICK HERE
