For Immediate Release
CeeBee
Stars Men’s Senior Hockey Team welcomes EastLink to centre ice as platinum
sponsor
Newfoundland,
November 10 – The CeeBee Stars
Senior Men’s Hockey team has a new name, now officially known as the EastLink
CeeBee Stars.
“We are
delighted to partner with the CeeBee Stars,” says Arthur Taylor, Regional
Manager for EastLink.
“Eastlink is dedicated to playing an active
role in supporting community activities that help make a positive difference in
the quality of life where we live, work, and play.”
As an Avalon East Senior Hockey Team, the
CeeBee Stars face off against three other teams in the league including the
Northeast Eagles, Mt. Pearl Blades and the Bell Island Wave.
“On behalf of the executive members and
volunteers of the CeeBee Stars Senior Hockey Team we are proud to welcome
EastLink as the Title sponsor for the 2010-2011 hockey season,” said Tracy
Shute, PR Manager for the EastLink CeeBee Stars.
"This partnership is an example of how
committed EastLink is to empowering the communities they
serve.”
As part of
EastLink’s platinum sponsorship, kids from the local area will have an
opportunity to participate in two EastLink Hockey Schools where they will share
ice time, learn from members of the CeeBee Stars and most importantly, have fun.
For a spot
on the Hockey School ice, names will be drawn from entries received at EastLink
CeeBee Star’s home games. Children must be present at the home game to enter.
The first EastLink Hockey School will take place on December
4th from 8-10 p.m.
EastLink
will also host two fan appreciation nights – December 11 and February
5.
“Senior
Men’s Hockey is very popular in Newfoundland drawing huge crowds and generating
lots of on-ice excitement so fans won’t want to miss these games. There will be
giveaways and special prizes to show the fans how much we appreciate their
enthusiasm and support,” said Mr. Taylor.
The puck drops on the next game on November
13 against the Bell Island Wave on Bell Island.
