Lightning Community Heroes - Lightning owner Jeff Vinik, along with his wife Penny, launched the Community Heroes initiative at the beginning of the 2011-2012 season to distribute $10 million dollars to deserving grass roots community heroes throughout the Tampa Bay community over the next five years. During the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 seasons, the Lightning honored a Community Hero at each of the Lighting's 41 regular season games, and awarded a $50,000 check to a non-profit charity of his or her choice. Over the course of the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 seasons, a total of $2,050,000 was distributed to worthy community causes.

Activity 3

Hockey Camps - Lightning Made Hockey is designed to give hockey players or all ages and skill levels the opportunity to experience, learn, and enjoy the game of hockey through a series of camps and clinics held year round. While all Lightning Made Programs utilize USA Hockey's American Development Model to focus on basic skill development, each program exudes its own unique experience while enhancing various aspects of a player's game. Lightning Made Clinics are focused on the entry level hockey player, with an emphasis on the absolute fundamentals. The Lightning Made Alumni Series is directed at the beginner to intermediate hockey player who is looking for help on certain aspects of his or her game including defensive skills, offensive and stick handling skills, and goaltending. The Lightning Made Summer and Holiday Camps target hockey players of all skill levels who are looking to round out their overall game. The Lightning Made Training Camp is an elite level program targeted at the higher caliber player as the hockey season approaches, and gets them back in game shape. All programs utilize the best instructors you could possibly find, individuals that have been around and know the game of hockey; former NHL and college level players.
