CONDORS COLLECT BEARS GALORE: 7,639 Stuffed Toys Go To Local Charity

Last week, the Condors book-ended Thanksgiving with two meaningful collections. On Tuesday, fans were given $1 admission with the donation of a new toy for the Marines Toys for Tots program. On Saturday, fans participated in the Teddy Bear Toss, a Condorstown tradition for 14 years. Stuffed animals showered the ice when Evan Trupp scored the Condors first goal just over one minute into the game. A total 7,639 bears were collected by the United Way of Kern county to distribute to a variety of non profit organizations serving children. For highlights, click here.
