The face-off between Orange County firefighters and the Central Florida Enforcers, composed of a group of law enforcement officers from the region, was held prior to the Orlando Solar Bears game. The Orlando Solar Bears are a professional ice hockey team that plays 36 regular season home games at the Amway Center.<\/p>\n<p>The Fire Rescue honor guard kicked off the celebration and firefighter Oscar Negron sang the national anthem prior to the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This game is a tradition that takes place all over the world to raise money for different charities,&#8221; said Orange County Fire Rescue Engineer and Paramedic Michael Blatter, president of the Orange County Fire Rescue hockey team. &#8220;It also provides an opportunity to bring together our various first responders from the different areas of public safety and it makes me feel like I am part of something meaningful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Central Florida Enforcers won the game with a score of 4 to 3.
