The Blattner Hockey team, made up of players from the company, faced off against the St. Cloud Warriors, who are all former service members. Team Blattner lost 7-3.
According to the company, the game is the Warriors’ largest fundraising event of the year. Money was raised through corporate donations, free will offerings at the door, raffle ticket sales and activities. Forty-three local businesses donated to the event.
