The club, which is free of charge and open to children 12 years of age and under, include a number of benefits for members. including:
- A dressing room visit during the season.
- A private skate with the team
- A membership card that can be used to purchase a child`s game ticket for half price ($3.50 instead of $7 regular price).
- Discounts on souvenirs at the Storm Store during games, or at Ernie`s Sports Experts.
- Several cool features if you celebrate your birthday at a Storm home game, including introduction on the big screen at the game, a special `Storm Kidz` puck autographed by the team, and $3.50 tickets for as many child-aged friends as you wish to bring.
The club will also hold a monthly draw among Canadian Tire Storm Kidz Fan Club members, with the winner receiving a special prize from Canadian Tire, which will be presented to them at center ice at a Storm Game.
A special Canadian Tire Storm Kidz Fan Club page will also be unveiled on the Storm`s website during the season.
Families can register their child for the Canadian Tire Storm Kidz Fan Club at the special Storm-Edmonton Oilers Ice Breaker event planned for Saturday from 12 to 4 at the parking lot of the Crystal Center. They can also register at the Storm office in the Canada Games Arena, or by calling 780-538-4919.
On a side note, Canadian Tire will also sponsor this year`s Storm hockey card set. Those will be released a few months into the season. (Note to business manager Don Moon.... I think a Jeff Henson hockey card would be a great addition to this year`s set, and could be a collector`s item down the road.)
Henny, let's do it! Might be a first for Junior A hockey and we always like to be leaders. Moe Trudeau is taking the team photos on Thursday at 10 a.m. Show up in your Storm jacket and we'll shoot you. Don Moon
