MARQUETTE, Mich. (WLUC) – The Detroit Red Wings alumni will be in Marquette for a rematch this weekend.
Saturday is Marquette County Hockey Night, a fundraiser for the United Way of Marquette County. Hockey stars from around the county will don their Yoopers United jerseys to take on former Wings players.
On top of the main event, there will be tailgating, a sled hockey exhibition and an afterparty.
Andrew Rickauer, United Way of Marquette County executive director, says every dollar raised stays in the area to help your friends and neighbors.
“About 40% of local residents are impacted by these dollars,” Rickauer said. “Whether it’s the youth programs, senior programs, food insecurity, transportation, and it’s all through our 26 partner agencies.”
Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for youth and students. Proceeds benefit the United Way of Marquette County. Rickauer says tickets are selling quickly.
Tailgating starts at 3 p.m. on Saturday. Doors open at 5 p.m.
