Family Night also includes a toy collection in partnership with the "Big 10TV Toy Drive" which supports the Salvation Army of Central Ohio's efforts to brighten the holidays for local families in need. Before the Dec. 10 game, donations of new, unwrapped toys will be accepted outside the arena's main entrances. Fans who donate toys that night will receive a pair of complimentary tickets to the January 3 game vs. the Edmonton Oilers.
For those unable to make it to the game, toy donations are being accepted now through December 10 at the FOX Sports Ohio Blue Line at Nationwide Arena, the FOX Sports Ohio Blue Line at The Mall at Tuttle Crossing as well as the local OhioHealth Chiller Ice Rinks. Additionally, donors may drop off toys at a drive-through collection at the 10TV studios (770 Twin Rivers Dr., Columbus, OH 43215) on Thursday, December 8 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Stinger and other Blue Jackets personalities will be making special appearances during the drive.
