Michigan Warriors give back to community during holidays

The Michigan Warriors of the North American Hockey League are giving back to those in need this holiday season.
 
On Tuesday December 18, 2012, the Warriors players and staff will be visiting children in the Hurley Medical Center’s Pediatrics Facility.  Warriors’ players will be handing out teddy bears to children in the hospital during the holiday season.
 
The teddy bears taken to Hurley will be donated by fans that attended the Michigan Warriors game back on Saturday, December 15, 2012, which was designated the Warriors “Teddy Bear Toss” game, in which, Teddy Bears were thrown onto the ice after the team scored its first goal during the game vs. the Port Huron Fighting Falcons.
