About:
The Oliver Ames High School hockey team, along with parents, children, and community members, kicked off their season in a heartwarming way during their home opener against Silver Lake Regional High School at Asiaf Arena on Saturday, December 14, 2024. The much-anticipated event featured a Teddy Bear Toss, where attendees were encouraged to throw stuffed animals onto the ice in support of a good cause.
The generosity of the Oliver Ames community was truly remarkable. All the stuffed animals collected during the toss were donated to the Easton Police Department, who will distribute them to children in need, spreading holiday cheer and comfort to those who may need it the most.
This incredible display of community spirit is a testament to the values of the Oliver Ames Hockey program—teaching young athletes the importance of giving back and making a positive impact in the lives of others.
We’re proud of everyone who participated in making this event such a success, and we can’t wait to see more ways the Oliver Ames Hockey team continues to inspire both on and off the ice!
