The 10th Annual Lehigh Valley Winter Classic being held on Saturday, February 4, 2023. All donations will benefit Special Hockey of the Lehigh Valley (SHLV). SHLV provides Lehigh Valley youths with Autism, Down’s Syndrome, brain injuries, and other cognitive disabilities an opportunity to play the greatest game on earth: ice hockey. 

​

The Classic will consist of a full day of hockey games including a game played by our very own local special hockey team, the Lehigh Valley Polar Bears. Last year, we exceeded +1,500 patrons at the event, a number that continues to increase year over year. All donors of the Classic will receive a verbal announcement on the PA system, logo placement on a sponsor banner, and recognition on our website; guaranteeing as much exposure as possible for all sponsorship levels.
