\nTo raise money for the furniture, the Defenders have given Easter Seals a stack of tickets to sell for Thursday’s final home game. Those who purchase their tickets by calling Easter Seals at (860) 859-4155, ext. 107, or by calling the Defenders directly for the Easter Seals tickets at (860) 887-7962 ext. 111, will have $6 of their $8 ticket donated directly toward replacing the furniture. In addition, O’Connor said, Easter Seals has been given a space where guests of the game may throw tennis balls into a hoop \u00e2\u20ac\u201d at $1 a try \u00e2\u20ac\u201d to try to win prizes, and 100 percent of every dollar will go toward replacing the furniture.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153They’ve been great neighbors. From time to time they bring us tickets to bring our clients to the games. And sometimes they’ll bring over the mascot to our little parties,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she said.<\/p>\n
