I don't think this was intentionally kept secret, but it is not listed
on their web site.  A news release was posted to a number of internal
"message boards", but they didn't propagate out, as usual.
As far as I know, it will *not* be carried on WZON or WMEB radio.

Apparently, the event is "on", with the time moved back from 6:30 to 7
pm, as  yesterday Joe Carr of UMaine announced ...

UMAINE TO HONOR WALSH AT WEDNESDAY SERVICE

ORONO -- Alfond Arena, the site of some of the most memorable moments of
Shawn Walsh's coaching career, will be the venue for a celebration of
his life on Wednesday, Oct.  10 at 7 p.m.

Fans are invited to join UMaine President Peter Hoff, Athletic Director
Suzanne Tyler and others to share in memories of the Black Bear hockey
coach, who died at the age of 46 on Sept.  24.

The program will feature several speakers, a chorus, the UMaine Pep Band
that Walsh considered to be an integral part of the Alfond Arena game
atmosphere, a video and several other presentations.

WZON radio's Dan Hannigan, the radio voice of the Black Bear hockey
team, will serve as master of ceremonies.
