LVMPD PRECINCT VISITS
To continue the team's outreach initiatives on Oct. 1, several players from The Vegas Golden Knights will visit with and provide meals to LVMPD officers at several LVMPD Area Commands throughout the day in remembrance of 1 October. Due to COVID restrictions there will be no one-on-one photos, no hand shaking and everyone will be required to wear a mask.
CLARK COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT HEADQUARTERS DELIVERIES

TICKET DONATIONS
The Golden Knights have committed to allocating 1,000 tickets for the 2020-21 season to first responders. Organizations will be contacted directly and work with the Vegas Golden Knights marketing team to distribute these tickets. Organizations will include, but are not limited to, law enforcement, fire fighters, and medical workers. This will be the first allocation of tickets through the Knights Salute, which allows Golden Knights Season Ticket Members the opportunity to donate additional home game tickets for deserving individuals and groups in our community so they can enjoy the excitement of a Vegas Golden Knights home game.
