Field trip- Hockey Game

Join us for a fun day watching the Point Mallard Ducks!

This trip is open to ALL homeschoolers but you MUST sign up to attend. IF YOU ARE NOT ON OUR LIST, YOU WILL NOT ENTER WITH OUR GROUP AND WILL PAY FULL ADMISSION RATES.

Friday February 5
10:30 am
Point Mallard Ice Complex, Decatur AL

Tickets are $5 each and include lunch (pizza, water, gatorade). Children 4 and under are free.

We will enter as a group at 10:30. The game starts at 11. This gives us time to get in and settled before the game begins. We will have a private room to eat lunch. As with all sporting events, an exact end time is impossible to predict. However, you should plan on the game lasting about 2-3 hours. The field trip will officially end at the end of the game.

Hockey is a fast paced action sport. There will be activities during half time as well. If you have never been to a game, this is a great way to check it out. We will be getting an incredible discount at this game.

Point Mallard Ducks will be playing a team from Dallas.

To sign up, please email or comment on our facebook event with total kids/ adults as well as ages.
