FARGO, N.D. (Valley News Live) – Local first responders will compete in the second annual Battle of the Badges hockey game Dec. 7 at Scheels Arena.
The Fargo Force and Hometown Heroes Committee are hosting the charity event with doors opening at 5:30 p.m. and puck drop at 6:30 p.m.

The custom jerseys will be auctioned online with all proceeds benefiting the Hometown Heroes Fund. Raffle tickets and apparel will be available.
