One of the Checkers’ most beloved traditions is returning, as the annual Teddy Bear Toss presented by Novant Health will be held on Nov. 28.
Fans are encouraged to bring new stuffed animals without breakable components to throw onto the ice following the Checkers’ first goal. The Checkers and Novant Health will then donate the stuffed animals to several local nonprofit organizations.
Over the 21 seasons in which they have held the Teddy Bear Toss, the Checkers have collected thousands of stuffed animals and brightened the holidays for countless local children.
Fans can purchase tickets by clicking here. Additionally, a package that includes a ticket to the game and a special-edition stuffed animal for just $55 total is available to purchase here.
The Checkers are hosting the Hershey Bears for Teddy Bear Toss Night, with the puck dropping at 4 p.m.
