TRANSCRIPT
On behalf of the Dallas Stars Foundation, I would like to thank you for your generous
donations and support that have allowed us to make a positive impact in the community.
As the foundation enters its 15th year, the drive to continue our mission of giving back and
remaining a fixture in North Texas is stronger than ever thanks to our reinvigorated Board
of Directors and the forward direction of the new Dallas Stars’ ownership.
Our past contributors have laid a firm foundation that has allowed our players, coaches,
and staff to transition the excellence displayed on ice to organizations and communities
who need it most. Your help continues to fortify that foundation for future donors to
support us on our philanthropic path.
In our community report you will find highlights from our fundraisers, community
involvement, and the wonderful organizations we work with. We are confident 2012-13
will lead to nothing but growth and success with the backing or our new ownership, new
ideas, and most importantly, your continued generosity.
Go Stars!

In its continuing commitment to the community, the Stars organization established the
Dallas Stars Foundation, the official charity of the Dallas Stars’ management and players.
The Dallas Stars realize that professional sports teams have a tremendous social and
economic impact upon their cities and states. A team’s athletes are called upon to provide
leadership, inspiration and support for their community. With this in mind, the Dallas
Stars Foundation was created to help maximize the Stars’ presence in the community
and to assist various non-profit organizations, particularly children’s charities, through
philanthropic grants and program implementation.

DaLLas LiFe PLaYGRoUnD BUiLD DaY Dallas Stars players, Vern Fiddler and Stephane Robidas,
alongside the Pro Players Foundation, Stars Executive Jason Farris and several volunteers visited the Dallas LIFE Homeless Shelter on May 12 to build the playground that the Dallas Stars Foundation helped fund through our grant program.
The playground features a swing set, slides and picnic tables and the Dallas Stars logo painted on the wall behind the equipment. Kids from the shelter were happy to test out their new playground and to have a safe, new area to play.
A ribbon cutting ceremony with Mayor Pro Tem Pauline Medrano followed the build and commemorated the donation.
On September 24th, former Stars players, Bob Bassen and Jere Lehtinen visited the Dallas LIFE Homeless Shelter and took part in a design day for their new playground that the Dallas Stars Foundation and the Pro Players Foundation helped fund.
Children from the shelter were asked to draw their dream playground at the event and elements from their drawings
would then be integrated into the final design of the new playground. Bob Bassen and Jere Lehtinen assisted the kids with their drawings and showed them how to use a hockey stick and how to shoot a puck.
The kids were thrilled to attend the event that featured the Stars slap shot cage and bounce house and were surprised to receive a set of hockey equipment from the Alumni.

The Dallas Stars Foundation hosted its annual High School Media Day on January 23. High School Media day is an annual event created by the Dallas Stars Foundation in their ongoing quest to provide support and educational opportunities for children in the Dallas community.
60 students from DFW area high schools were invited to attend a Dallas Stars practice, followed by a “mock” press conference with select Dallas Stars players and media professionals. Veteran, Dallas Stars play-by-play analyst Ralph Strangis served as the Emcee for the event. Students were able to ask questions and pick the brains of the professionals. Dallas Stars forwards Eric Nystrom, Michael Ryder and Mike Ribeiro joined the
panel after practice and team meetings. They fielded questions from the students, covering topics such as the upcoming All-Star game, current injury struggles and their favorite career moment.
Each student who attended High School Media Day was encouraged to participate in a contest, showcasing what they learned from the day’s events. They were encouraged to write an article or, new to the program this year, produce a two-minute video recapping their day at the Dallas Stars High School Media Day. Article winner: Dani Sureck, Plano Senior High School, 12th grade. Video winners: Joshua Pullum and Jesse Guadiana, Nimitz High School, 12th Grade.
Recognizing that illiteracy remains a persistent problem in our nation, the Dallas Stars Foundation created the Dallas Stars Stick with Reading program, presented by JCPenney and A#1 Air. The program was established in 1998 to encourage kids to develop the habit of reading in their free time.
Students record their extracurricular reading over an eight-week period for the chance to win prizes. The classroom that read the most minutes earned tickets to a Dallas Stars game while the school with the most minutes overall won the opportunity to host the Stick with Reading rally next year. The individual student in each of the three age groups reading the most minutes won the opportunity to attend a Dallas Stars game with their family, meet Steve Ott pre-game and receive his autographed jersey,
and be recognized on the jumbotron during the game.
Ott attended and spoke at the Dallas Stars Stick with Reading rally, held at Taylor Elementary in Plano to kick-off this season’s program. Steve delivered a heartfelt speech about the importance of picking up a book and reading. Toby Petersen and Adam Pardy accompanied Steve to the rally, where they spent the afternoon talking about the benefits and importance of reading. Half Price Books is one of the program’s sponsors this year, and they were on
hand to donate a skid of books to the Taylor Elementary Library.
In addition to the kickoff rally, Steve made appearances at JCPenney and Half Price Books, where he sat down and read to a large group of children and signed autographs.

children’s medical center hospital Visits

When it comes to putting a smile on a child’s face the Dallas Stars know exactly what to do on and off the ice. The entire team visited the patients at the Children’s Medical Center Dallas on December 6th. The visit to the Children’s Medical Center is an annual tradition for the Dallas Stars and one that the team always looks forward to.
The team split up into several groups to visit different playrooms in the hospital. The players passed out autographed player cards and participated in several different activities including coloring, video games, Guess Who and Foosball.
Players also made visits to individual patient rooms for those that weren’t well enough to make it to the playrooms.
Several of the players donned gloves, masks and hospital robes in order to visit the patients in restricted rooms, making sure no one was left out. The patients were so happy to see the Dallas Stars that one patient asked for a hug from each player that came to visit him.
Forward Vernon Fiddler made a young boy’s day when he took the jersey off his back and gave it to the patient. Fiddler also brought the boy and his family to a Dallas Stars game where they met the entire team after the game.
It’s moments like this that make the visit to the Children’s Medical Center a favorite for both the Dallas Stars, the patients and their families. Even when they aren’t scoring goals, the Dallas Stars are finding a way to make people smile.
Gage Kirkwood, 8, was diagnosed with strep throat, which landed him in the hospital. While in the hospital, it spread and something attacked his kidneys and caused complete kidney failure. He spent Thanksgiving and Christmas in the hospital and found out while Vern was visiting that he would spend New Year’s Day in the hospital as well. Gage was undergoing dialysis at the hospital and would have to continue those treatments once he was released as well.
Upon Vern’s arrival, Gage’s mom, Stacy, was in tears. Vern and Gage hit it off immediately when Vern asked Gage and his siblings if they wanted to see something scary. The kids were intrigued as Vern popped out his false teeth. Gage asked Vern if he wears the fake teeth to play, how many teeth he’s missing and how he lost them.
Vern gave Gage a goodie bag that included a Fiddler jersey and other Stars items, and he even invited the Kirkwood family out to an upcoming game. Vern visited with Gage and his family for an hour and the family was extremely grateful for his visit.

to participate in honoring the military on March 10th. The Dallas Stars players utilized custom camouflage-themed tape on their sticks during warm-ups of the home game vs. Anaheim, in honor of the United States military.
The sticks were autographed by Stars players and auctioned off by the Dallas Stars Foundation. The $5,200 raised benefited the USO United Through Reading Program and other military children’s programs.

LiGHt tHe niGHt WaLKOnce again this season, the Dallas Stars Front Office employees
pledged their time for the 2011“Light the Night Walk.” All front office employees were encouraged to register and participate in the walk which benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light the Night Walk is the nation’s night to pay tribute and bring hope to those who are battling cancer. Walks take place in communities throughout the United States and Canada, typically in the fall. On these special nights, thousands of participants carry illuminated balloons and raise funds for vital, lifesaving research and patient services.
On October 22nd, the Stars Front Office team participated in Light the Night Walk in downtown Dallas. Employees raised over $12,000 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to celebrate and commemorate lives touched by cancer. The Dallas Stars brought in further revenue for LLS in the form of grants from the Dallas Stars Foundation and the NHL. All of the Dallas Stars efforts combined to raise a grand total of over $27,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The Light the Night walk was once again a huge success and we look forward to another successful event in 2012.

This season Dallas Stars Forward Toby Petersen helped fellow DFW athlete, Texas Rangers, Michael Young with the 1st Annual Michael Young
Celebrity BaseBOWL Tournament. The event was held on September 11th and benefited Wipe Out Kids’ Cancer. Petersen participated with other athletes,
sports personalities and entertainers.
“Movember,” which began about 12 years ago in Australia, is designed to help bring awareness to prostate cancer and other men’s diseases. By growing moustaches in November, some Stars players helped raise funds and call attention to how prostate cancer can be prevented.
The movement has caught on in recent years in North America, especially in Canada. Stars Defenseman Mark Fistric headed up the team’s efforts, and the rest of the team gladly signed on to take part! Through Mark’s and the
rest of the team’s fundraising pages, more than $13,600 was raised by the Dallas Stars for the cause, which was the second most of all NHL teams that participated.
Mark Fistric and his wife Geena attended the Dallas Moustache’s event on November 1st to kickoff Movember. Drink and merchandise sales at the social event were donated back to the cause. Dallas Moustache is a local initiative that supports Movember and their goal of bringing awareness and funding to men’s cancers. The Dallas Stars held their annual Hockey Fights Cancer
night on October 13th. The Stars recognized and raised money for several charitable organizations for their efforts in cancer research - Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, Mary Crowley Cancer Research Centers, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
Cancer patients from these organizations got the opportunity to participate in some fun behind the scenes activities such as: serving as the Dr Pepper Stick Kid, sitting in the penalty boxes during warm-ups, and sitting on the player bench post-game.
The Dallas Stars Foundation raised close to $10,000 through a silent auction consisting of lavender wrapped sticks the team used during warm-ups, ticket sales, and
collections at the door by the Dallas Stars Wives and girlfriends.
Ralph Strangis and Daryl Reaugh auctioned off their Hockey Fights Cancer ties from years past, and the winners were invited to come up to the booth to watch the post-game show, and to the winners’ surprise, Ralph and Razor put them on the show.
Stars players wore Hockey Fights cancer decals on their helmets all month. Coaches, broadcasters and front office execs donned lavender Hockey Fights Cancer ties. All proceeds from Hockey Fights Cancer fundraising were divided evenly between the four cancer organizations that attended this special night.

taylor’s GiFt niGhtOn Friday, March 16 the Stars hosted the Chicago Blackhawks and raised awareness for Taylor’s Gift – an organization
whose mission is dedicated to increasing organ donation through youth education. The foundation was created by Todd and Tara Storch, whose daughter Taylor, passed away in a skiing accident at the age of 13. Her parents quickly made the decision to have her organs donated to those in need and in doing so, Taylor Storch helped save five lives. Taylor’s parents created Taylor’s Gift Foundation to increase organ donation, re-gift life, renew health and restore families.
March 16th was officially named “Taylor’s Gift Night.” Fans were be able to donate to the cause, sign up to be an organ donor at the Dallas Stars Foundation table, or receive blue Taylor’s Gift wristbands at the merchandise stores for a small donation. The Storch family was interviewed by Ralph Strangis during the first intermission. Stars coaches and broadcasters wore blue Taylor’s Gift ties. The Dallas Stars players showed their support by using sticks wrapped with blue tape during warm-ups; those sticks were auctioned off at the Foundation table and online. Over $6,100 was raised for the Taylor’s Gift Foundation.

members, hockey personnel, coaches and players of the Russian Lokomotiv Yaroslavl hockey team went down. In a united effort to show support for the grieving families, hockey wives and girlfriends from around the world created
Love for Lokomotiv in hopes to raise money for their friends. The Dallas Stars wives and girlfriends honored the victims of the Lokomotiv hockey team by selling remembrance
bracelets. All funds raised directly benefited the families of the Lokomotiv team. The bracelets were sold all season at the Dallas Stars Foundation table. The Dallas Stars raised over $7,000 for the families of the Lokomotiv team and the Dallas Stars Foundation donated an additional $1,000.
The tragedy struck particularly close to home for the Dallas Stars and their fans as one of their own, former defenseman Karlis Skrastins, died in the accident. Skrastins left behind his wife Zane and their three daughters. The Dallas Stars honored Skrastins in a pre-game ceremony on March 24th and set up a trust fund for the three girls, of which the Dallas Stars players pooled together a significant donation.

14th annual dallas stars/parK place dealerships casino niGhtCasino Night was held on January 18th at the elegant
Park Place Motorcars Mercedes-Benz in Grapevine. The sold out event raised over $266,000 for the Foundation, had over 600 attendees and was the most successful event to date.
The event provided Stars fans a unique opportunity to play blackjack, craps or roulette while mingling with their favorite Stars players and talking to them in a relaxed setting.
Ralph and Razor led the bidding during the live auction which featured a trip for two to the NHL Winter Classic, dinner with Stars General Manager Joe Nieuwendyk and his lovely wife Tina, a trip for two joining the Stars on a two-game road trip, and an experience for two accompanying the Stars to training camp.
Besides the stellar live auction items, plenty of amazing
silent auction items were up for grabs, with available items including a Rolling Stones signed guitar, signed jerseys from not only every current Stars player, but also from past legends such as Nieuwendyk, Brett Hull, Mike Modano, and Jere Lehtinen.
Another key element that helped make the evening a thorough success was the outstanding food provided by III Forks. Guests enjoyed Kobe beef sliders, beef croustades, Ahi tuna nachos and the distinct III Forks salads, not to mention excellent desserts.
Still, as great as every other aspect of the experience was, the best part of Casino Night is the opportunity fans have to talk to their Stars’ heroes, who by all accounts, are also excellent people off the ice.
