We hope you are out enjoying this nice weather in between the last few hockey games of the season. Thank you to all of our members who came out to our fun-filled Kids Club autograph session on Sunday March 8th. It was a great day to be a Kids Club member, as the session was more than just autographs – it was a maze inside the RBC Center too! Members got to go through the Olympia entrance and touch the Olympia, walk across the RBC Center ice, sit on the Hurricanes bench, go into the penalty box, got player autographs in the visiting team locker room, and also autographs with Stormy. They were able to get their photo taken at each stop along the way! The maze ended with members entering to win one of six Hurricanes autographs. Congratulations to our winners!
If you have any comments or feedback on this year’s autograph session, please feel free to email the Kids Club at KidsClub@CarolinaHurricanes.com. We’ve also had some weekly autograph winners that we would like to announce. Emily Schoeffler won a Tuomo Ruutu autographed photo for the week of February 2nd; Matthew Wagner won a Ray Whitney autographed Hurricanes Hockey Kids Club card for the week of February 16; Jordan Rains won a Sergei Samsonov autographed Hurricanes Hockey Kids Club card for the week of February 23; Nick Dineen won a Rod Brind’Amour autographed Hurricanes Hockey Kids Club Card for the week of March 9; and Cierra Colburn won a Scott Walker autographed Hurricanes Hockey Kids Club card for the week of March 16.
