The Thunder Is Thrilled to Be Back on the Ice for NYE
The Adirondack Thunder had to undergo a mandatory stoppage in play earlier this month, but they return to puck tomorrow for New Year’s Eve as they face off against the Newfoundland Growlers.
“There’s no better way to kick-off the New Year celebration than with the fast-paced excitement of Adirondack Thunder ice hockey,” Adirondack Thunder President Jeff Mead said in a statement. “We’re thrilled to be back on home ice after a brief hiatus and look forward to seeing our fans for the first time in three weeks.”
For New Year’s Eve, the Thunder is offering a family-four-pack deal that includes four tickets, four souvenir cups, and two jump passes to Sky Zone for $69. There will also be $4 12oz Bud Light specials throughout the evening.

Glens Falls Police Raising Money for K-9 Program
As of this writing, the Glens Falls Police Department has raised over $3,000 towards their $10,000 fundraising goal for the department’s K-9 program. They’re looking to purchase training equipment, including a police vehicle with a heat sensor and a door popper. The properly-equipped vehicle would be able to notify the handler via cell phone of an issue with the dog or the vehicle, and the door popper can be used to release the dog to assist an officer.

Order Farmers Market Products Online Ahead of Time, Then Pick Them Up
You may know that the Glens Falls Farmers Market operates indoors, out of Aviation Mall, on Saturdays during the winter months. But, did you know you can place your order ahead of time, and then go pick it up at a designated time? They’ll bring your order right out to your car. It couldn’t be easier to support local and get great products like breakfast sausage patties from Grazin Acres Farm, rainbow bagel chips from Alchemy Bagel Co, or sour garlic pickles from Puckers Gourmet.
