Transformational Gift Secures BGSU Ice Arena Future
December 10, 2016 | General, Ice Hockey, Falcon Club
Slater family’s connection spans three generations
Scott Slater '73 enrolled at BGSU in the fall of 1969 and first attended Falcon hockey games with his future in-laws, who had season tickets. Nearly 50 years later, Slater still has those same seats in the upper level of the Ice Arena, and in the decades since, he has done much more than just cheer for the Falcons.
Slater and his family were major contributors to the "Bring Back the Glory" campaign that secured the BGSU hockey program. Now, the family is making a $2 million transformational gift to advance the future of the facility that means so much to them. In recognition of the gift, the University's Board of Trustees approved the naming of the "Slater Family Ice Arena" at the Dec. 9 Board meeting.
