(Albuquerque, NM) Tuesday, August 27, 2024 — The New Mexico Ice Wolves® and Outpost Ice Arenas today announced a multi-year partnership with Chevron starting with the upcoming 2024-2025 hockey season. As part of the partnership Chevron will have an in-ice logo in the NM Ice Wolves game rink and dasher board in the south rink of Outpost Ice Arenas in Albuquerque, NM.

“We are thrilled to partner with Chevron as they are such a leader in an industry so critical to the state of New Mexico,” said Stan E. Hubbard, Owner of the New Mexico Ice Wolves and Outpost Ice Arenas. “Chevron will help us grow the game of hockey and all ice sports in the state and we look forward to working together on exciting and fun promotions for fans.”   

“Chevron’s support for the New Mexico Ice Wolves is a perfect fit,” says Chevron General Manager of Operations Bobby Hulett. “This collaboration underscores our commitment to the communities in New Mexico where we live and work and will put smiles on the faces of many of our employees who share a love for hockey.”

The partnership marks the second time the NM Ice Wolves and Chevron have collaborated after last season’s special event when Chevron donated $5,000 to the Boys & Girls Club of the Permian Basin and $2,500 to the University of New Mexico Comprehensive Cancer Center through the University of New Mexico Foundation in Albuquerque. The event was a friendly wager among more than 750 Chevron employees and family members from New Mexico and Texas for the winner of the NAHL game between the NM Ice Wolves and the Odessa Jackalopes. It was a fitting game for Chevron employees to attend, given the company’s regional operations that span West Texas and New Mexico.
