Pucker up for Valentine's Day
The Vernon Hills Capitals semi-pro hockey team (http://www.VernonHillsCapitals.com) invites fans at this Saturday's game to pucker up for Valentine's Day! The Capitals host the Calumet (Michigan) Wolverines at 8:20PM Saturday night at Glacier Ice Arena in Vernon Hills.
The contest's winning couple will receive an overnight stay at an area hotel, dinner for two, movie passes, flowers, chocolate and more!
Pucker Up!
At the game's opening faceoff, couples will stand just outside the ice rink and lock lips as close to the rink's glass as possible. As the game progresses, participating couples will have to continue kissing, even as slap shots and crashes into the boards near where they are standing occur. The couple that goes the longest without being spooked and breaking their lip-lock will win a fabulous prize package.
Prizes

- A $50 gift certificate good for dinner for two at McCarthy's Restaurant & Irish Pub in Hawthorn Shopping Center;
- Movie passes for two at Kerasotes Vernon Hills ShowPlace 8;

- A surprise prize package for two from Lover's Lane in Libertyville;
- A surprise prize package from Team Choice in Gurnee Mills Mall;
- Car wash vouchers for two from Turtle Wax Car Wash & Auto in Mundelein;
- A floral bouquet and a box of chocolates.
To participate, contestants must be 21 or older. In case of a tie the winning couple will be drawn at random at center ice after the game. Couples will have to maintain lip contact during the entire game until the final buzzer sounds (including during intermissions).
