Being the most storied franchise in NJ adult ice hockey history, the Bombers are often looked to as a beacon of the game with a responsibility to promote adult hockey throughout the state. Raising money to help worthwhile charities via their work with the NJ Devil Alumni Association and the Charity Hockey Classic is one way . But the team also helps upstart clubs such as the BayCity Chachis by playing them in exhibition contests. The aim is to raise awareness for the younger clubs and give them an up close and personal look at the players many of them have grown to idolize over the years.
Bomber captain Bill Auld commented "We are happy to help young clubs like this one -the Choochies I think it is? They long to be looked at the way we are in the state. They may never be like the Bombers in their reach and influence, but they will experience how magnificent an organization we are by seeing us up close. What they do with that experience is up to them. I am sure they will be in a bit of awe a first to be able to skate on the same ice as us but we will make it fun for them and their fans."
A limited number of seats are still available for the game at Aspen Ice Flemington on Thursday June 21st at 8:45pm. Come root on New Jersey's premier franchise in their good will game vs the BayCity Choochies . . . I mean Chachis.
