The Potsdam Chamber Bowling Fun Night is coming up on March 22nd.  We are looking for 16 lane sponsors and a food sponsor.  Sponsors can send a team of 4-5 people to play the lane or can decide to keep the lane “open” for others to sign up to use instead. We will also have some additional friendly competitive games as well for attendees. To learn more about being a lane sponsor or food sponsor contact Janice at 315-265-4565.

Hockey Night 2018

Jim Hutton with Marylee Ballou Jim did the Money Grab at Potsdam Chamber Hockey Night October 2016

The Potsdam Chamber’s annual hockey night fundraiser supports the Potsdam Summer Festival and other community events. For every $13 ticket the chamber sells, we keep $10 thanks to the generous support of Clarkson Golden Knights Hockey.

This Feb. 23rd game versus Princeton is looking to be quite a match up.  Clarkson lost its road game to Princeton earlier this month, and wants to come out on top at home.

Tickets are available at the chamber office, 24 Market Street. We accept cash, check, and credit. Tickets can also be ordered online and then picked up at the office, at the pre-game mixer at Maxfield’s or at the chamber table in the lobby of Cheel Arena just before the game.

Three chamber ticketholders will be chosen to go onto the ice during the first intermission to participate in a game to win prizes. Another ticketholder will be chosen for the Money Grab- sponsored by North Country Savings Bank- a chance to win up to $100.
