Hockey Fans Toss 11,000 Teddy Bears for Charity
The ice at Portland’s Memorial Coliseum was quickly covered by 11,000 teddy bears just after the first goal during the Winterhawks match on December 1, 2018. Every stuffed animal was carefully collected, driven off the ice, and donated to local charitable organizations to be distributed to kids throughout the region. Partnering with the Winterhawks to celebrate and collect the bears for this 20-year-long tradition is a thrill for everyone involved.
As one of the pioneers of the Teddy Bear Toss, the Winterhawks organization deserves a lot of credit for making this a popular event at hockey arenas around the country. Congratulations to the Winterhawks for another successful Teddy Bear Toss and their 8-2 win that night.
