The twenty eighth annual Hockey For Hospice event is underway, following the identical format as earlier years, over 115 groups from the area are scheduled to take part.
Initially conceived as a skate-a-thon by event founder, Tim Beaulieu, Hockey For Hospice has grown annually from its humble beginnings. This 12 months’s version will embrace a schedule of greater than 200 video games performed at 4 completely different arenas over three days. Divisions embrace U7, U8, U8 MD, U9, and wU9 Jamboree, in addition to U11, U13, and U15 boys divisions, and U11, U13, and U15 ladies divisions.
“This event is one that players, parents, coaches, and community members all look forward to each year, and we are thrilled to be back once again,” stated Katharen Bortolin, Government Director of The Hospice. “Stepping into the arenas, you can feel the excitement, and year after, these young players continue to astonish us with their skills, hard work and generosity. Not only do they have fun, raise pledges, and learn about The Hospice, they’re teaching their families, friends and neighbours about Hospice and our vision of delivering memorable care. They are ambassadors and champions, and we can’t wait to see them at the rink once again this year.”
