TAMPA BAY – The Tampa Bay Lightning honored Greg Jones as the 27th Lightning Community Hero of the 2015-16 season during the first period of tonight’s game versus the Pittsburgh Penguins. Jones, who received a $50,000 donation from the Lightning Foundation and the Lightning Community Heroes program, will donate the money to the Faith Café and the Palma Ceia Challengers.
Tonight’s community hero symbolizes what it means to be a devoted public servant to those in need. Since 1999, Jones founded the challenger division at Palma Ceia Little League, a baseball program for young boys and girls with special needs.
