4-H Night with the Bossier-Shreveport Mudbugs hockey team on March 7 provided fun and support of the youth development program.

The game was played at the CenturyTel Center in Bossier City. More than 700 tickets for 4-H’ers were sold, with $3 per ticket supporting 4-H camp and service learning projects, said Karen Martin, 4-H regional coordinator.

At the tailgate party, guests consumed pizzas and punch. Chesapeake Energy donated $500 for the pre-game festivity.

Ten 4-H’ers lined up on the ice to swing at a puck during the second intermission.

The Mudbugs lost to the Mississippi River Kings 6-2 in front of 5,431 fans.
