PHOENIX – Balloons, confetti and the sounds of Latin music filled the Ice Den Scottsdale. In the background, the subtle sound of skate blades and stick taps echoed throughout the ice rink.
Attendees of the Hispanic Heritage Month kick-off event, their faces filled with joy, briefly paused during Wednesday’s celebration while Coyotes president and CEO Xavier A. Gutierrez announced the organization’s plans of engaging the local community.
“What I am most excited about is the work being done across the community,” Gutierrez told the crowd. “While we’re here celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month, we’re also celebrating everything that we do year-round to target this incredibly important community.”
