The Tri-City Americans hockey team hosts its 15th

annual Pink Ice Night to draw attention to breast cancer and raise money for

the Tri-Cities Cancer Center Foundation.

The program begins at 7:05 p.m. Feb. 28 at Toyota

Center in Kennewick. Discounted tickets are available for $12 through the

foundation, 509-737-3413.

The rink will be painted pink. Pink game jerseys worn

by the players will be auctioned at the game. Commemorative T-shirts will be

available with a donation and there will be a silent auction on the concourse.

Warrior Sisterhood, a support group to empower local

women with cancer or cancer-related diagnoses, will display decorated luminary

bags honoring and remembering those who faced cancer on the mezzanine during

the program.

Those wishing to include their loved ones’ names can

buy a bag for $5 through the cancer center foundation office or through the

Warrior Sisterhood Facebook page. 

They’ll also be sold during the Feb. 14-15 Ams games.

Purchase luminary bags before Feb. 24.
