The Utah Mammoth on Tuesday announced the first-ever statewide “Mammoth Week” presented by Delta Air Lines, a mobile “fanfest” that will bring hockey to communities across Utah, including to the Park City Ice Arena on July 29 from noon-4 p.m.
From July 26 to Aug. 2, members of the Utah Mammoth organization will visit seven cities — from Logan to St. George — to offer a series of team-hosted events that include free street hockey clinics and affordable on-ice clinics in which youth participants will learn skills like target shooting and stick handling so that they can experience the fundamentals of the sport firsthand, according to the Utah Mammoth.
In addition, each stop will include other attractions, such as a Utah Mammoth retail pop-up shop, team-branded giveaways and “immersive” activities, according to the team. Attendees will also have opportunities to connect with surprise guests, including Mammoth players and team personnel. More information surrounding Mammoth Week, including clinic times and registration details, can be found online.
“From day one, our mission has been for children, families, and community members across all of Utah to have the opportunity to connect with the Utah Mammoth and experience the sport of hockey for themselves,” said Chris Armstrong, president of hockey operations for the Utah Mammoth. “Mammoth Week is a huge step toward that goal — allowing us to bring the excitement, energy, and spirit of the Mammoth directly into communities throughout the state. Whether you’ve played hockey for years or are picking up a stick for the first time, there will be something for everyone.”
Attendees in each city will also have a chance to experience and participate in the NashCast Podcast, a weekly show that brings engaging conversations between Utah Mammoth broadcast personality and former NHL player Tyson Nash and special guests. Nash will be joined by Mike Folta, Utah Mammoth’s radio play-by-play announcer, and other members of the Utah Mammoth broadcast team throughout the week, and attending fans may have an opportunity to participate in episode recordings. The team urged those interested to follow @NashCastOfficial on Instagram for more information on how to “Bring the Thunder” during Mammoth Week. All episodes of the podcast will be released on Mammoth+, SEG+ and on the NashCast YouTube channel.
