Sunday night the Hershey Bears wives and girlfriends held their annual Christmas ornament sale at Giant Center. Dustin Gazley’s wife Ashley and Joe Cannata’s girlfriend Jillian spoke to our Riliegh McHugh about the event. Below the jump, some of our favorite BFF photos from the silent auction!
On Friday, December 5th, the Hershey Bears Better Halves will hold their annual Christmas fundraiser. This year’s event will feature the traditional team autographed Christmas ornaments and a cookbook of favorite holiday recipes that the players enjoy.
You will be able to purchase the ornaments and cookbooks behind section 119, where both will be $25. There are only 1,000 cookbooks, with 200 random ones having signatures from the players in them.
Saturday night, the Hershey Bears Wives and Girlfriends had another one of their fundraisers for a very worthy cause. In a continuation of a fundraiser started in 2005, the wives auctioned off custom made holiday ornaments made by the players, with all the proceeds going to the Hershey Medical Center Children’s Hospital.

Saturday night, the Hershey Bear Wives joined forces with Mixed Up Productions at Giant Center to help raise money for the American Cancer Society. The players painted their sticks pink, some of which were used in warm-ups before the game against the Marlies, and were then put into a silent auction.
This past Wednesday night was a special one for Sweetest Hockey as it was our first ever Hershey Bears viewing party! This was all in conjunction with the Hershey Bears Wives, Hershey Bears Booster Club, abc27, The Old Barn Hockey Show, and Fire Alley with the proceeds from a raffle going to the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Pennsylvania.
We are just under 24 hours away until our first ever Hershey Bears viewing party! That means we have an update for you.
