(November 27, 2024) – Ripple Fiber, a fiber optic internet provider based in the Southeast, is excited to announce its sponsorship with the American Hockey League’s Charlotte Checkers for the 2024-2025 season.
This partnership, centered around fan appreciation, will feature multiple engaging elements, including custom on-ice promotions during intermissions where contestants compete to win exciting prize packs courtesy of Ripple Fiber. Fans will also be introduced to the Ripple Fiber Wave, led by team mascot Chubby and a Ripple Fiber flag.
"Ripple Fiber and the Checkers organization share a deep commitment to the local community," said Jim Cannata, Chief Marketing Officer at Ripple Fiber. "In each market we serve, we seek partnerships that not only enhance our services but also make a positive impact. Our collaboration with the Checkers allows us to engage with the community in meaningful ways and support initiatives that truly make a difference."
A member of the American Hockey League since 2010, the Charlotte Checkers are the top developmental affiliate of the NHL’s Florida Panthers. A proud representative of the community since the first professional hockey game was played in Charlotte in 1956, the Checkers provide family-friendly entertainment at Bojangles Coliseum each season.
“We're thrilled to welcome Ripple Fiber as a new corporate partner and look forward to creating a winning partnership on and off the ice,” says Mary Grams, VP of Corporate Partnerships with the Charlotte Checkers.
