The Lincoln Firefighters Local 644 and the Lincoln Stars are proud to announce the inaugural Hometown Heroes Hockey Game, scheduled for Sunday, November 16, 2025, at The Ice Box. Doors will open at 1:00 p.m. with puck drop at 2:05 p.m.
This one-of-a-kind event will bring together first responders from Lincoln, Omaha, and surrounding communities as they face off against Siouxland’s bravest—a team comprised of Sioux City area first responders—in an action-packed, family-friendly hockey showdown.
This year’s game will raise funds for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) in honor of 6-year-old local ambassador, Isai Soriano, who was recently diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, as well as the Lincoln chapter of the First Responders Foundation.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive and life-limiting condition that affects about 1 in every 3,600 male infants. It weakens muscles needed for movement, breathing, and heart function. While there is no cure, treatments can help slow its progression and provide hope for families like the Sorianos.
“This event is about honoring our first responders and military members, while also rallying behind Isai and families impacted by muscular dystrophy,” said organizer and Lincoln Firefighter Delano Lopez. “We can only succeed with the strength of our community. Every ticket purchased, every cheer from the stands, and every donation makes a difference. Together, we can create hope and show what Lincoln is all about—supporting one another.”
Fans of all ages will enjoy more than just hockey. The day will feature:
- Fire apparatus, police cruiser, and StarCare helicopter tours
- Face painting, balloon animals, and a kids’ Fun Zone
- Silent auctions, raffles, and vendor booths
- In-game competitions and recognition of local heroes
