TDS TV recently sponsored the Verona Fest in benefit of the Verona Youth Hockey Program and the local non-profit ice arena, Eagle’s Nest. The event featured activities fun for the whole family including games, a skating party, a silent auction, a hockey tournament, plus a 5K run/walk and 1 mile kids run.
TDS TV Verona Fest was a huge success! The total crowd was estimated at over 2,000 people and the youth hockey program netted $5,000 in donations. Those donations will help keep the youth programs running for the upcoming season. In addition, TDS Verona Fest raised roughly $25,000 to support Eagle’s Nest Ice Arena, the home rink for local youth hockey events. Those dollars will keep the ice arena running for another year so Verona residents have a place to skate and play.
