‘Pink in the rink’ supports local oncology patients

On October 11 and 12, 2013, the Kenai River Brown Bears went pink in the rink and auctioned game jerseys to benefit the Central Peninsula Health Foundation cancer care program. This sixth annual event raised $7,150.00 from fans and the team, bringing the total contributed over 6 years to $46,150 to assist in care and support of local oncology patients. Please help us thank the Kenai River Brown Bears team, management and fans for this very generous support.
