We love our hockey in the Southern Tier of New York. We are looking forward to the Binghamton Black Bears defending their Commissioner Cup title for the upcoming season. Their first home game is Saturday, October 12th, so save the date.

Speaking of saving dates, here is another one for you - Thursday, October 10th. That is when we will step back in time and reminisce about the good old Broome Dusters days?

Relive the glory days of the Broome Dusters at the Arena Club of the Visions Veterans Memorial Arena on Thursday, October 10th beginning at 12:00 noon. A star-studded discussion panel featuring renowned figures from the hockey world will gather in one place to talk Broome Duster hockey. Count me in!

Roger Neel, the former Sports Director at WNBF-Radio, will lead the panel as the Emcee. Joining him are former Broome Dusters players Frank Hamill, Max Hansen, and Roger Kozar, along with Tom Mitchell, the former Owner/GM of B-Whalers, B-Rangers, B-Senators, B-Devils, and Phil Jacobs, who is a former Sports Director at WBNG-TV and previously served as an executive with Broome Dusters and B-Whalers.

It's a fun-filled event with a lineup of awesome activities including discussions and Q&A sessions to keep everyone entertained. They've got you covered with a box lunch to keep your hunger pangs at bay and as a bonus, you will get two tickets to a future B-Black Bears game.

Tickets are only $25 and you can grab yours at AJQSports.com, don't delay because spots are limited and ticket sales end on Monday, October 7th. The net proceeds will support the Greater Binghamton Sports Hall of Fame & Museum, so you will help preserve and celebrate the local hockey legacy.

Free Parking For Remembering the Broome Dusters Event

They will also have free parking available at both the front and rear of the Arena. While you're there, don't miss the chance to see the GB Sports Hall of Fame Museum in the Arena lobby.

This promises to be a trip down memory lane for die-hard Broome Dusters fans and anyone else that loves hockey in the Southern Tier. Mark your calendars (October 10th), get your tickets, and join us for an afternoon filled with hockey tales and camaraderie.
