Oct 18, 2017

CEDAR PARK, Texas – The Texas Stars, American Hockey League affiliate of the NHL’s Dallas Stars, announced today their annual H-E-B Food Drive Night to benefit the Central Texas Food Bank will take place on Friday, when the team hosts the rival San Antonio Rampage at 7:30 p.m. CST.

The Stars’ H-E-B Food Drive will begin at 10 a.m. in the East Lobby of H-E-B Center at Cedar Park and will run until the opening puck drop at 7:30 p.m. Fans who donate eight or more non-perishable food items will receive a voucher for a free ticket to Friday night’s game and the fan who makes the single largest food donation will win a Zamboni ride at an upcoming home game.

Once the arena doors open to fans at 6:30 p.m., food will be collected at each of the three H-E-B Center entrances until game time. Since its inception during the 2011-12 season, the Texas Stars Annual H-E-B Food Drive has brought in more than 7,000 pounds of food and over 6,000 meals for the Central Texas Food Bank. 

While Friday’s game is the official H-E-B Food Drive Night, the Stars will also continue to collect food throughout the season on their H-E-B Nights, which occur on every weekday game of the season (Monday-Thursday). Fans can bring any H-E-B branded, non-perishable food item to the H-E-B Center Box Office to save $5 off their ticket purchase.

The Texas Stars are the primary development affiliate of the NHL’s Dallas Stars, and currently playing their ninth season at H-E-B Center at Cedar Park. 24-game and 12-game ticket packages for the 2017-18 campaign are on sale now.
