Tucker Hockey is proud to support the Kids Hockey Advancement
Society's 5th Annual Fundraising Golf Tournament, as the Event Sponsor. We
fully endorse the Society as it endeavors to raise funds for such a great
cause. Personally, I am committed as well as other dedicated team members to
contribute the volunteer time and effort as required to ensure the continuing
success of the Society.
We look forward with great anticipation to this year's tournament,
scheduled for Wednesday September 12th, 2012, at the Inglewood Golf and Curling
Club.
The Kids Hockey Advancement Society was incorporated to provide an
opportunity for children to play, to develop their skating and hockey skills
and to participate in organized hockey - the nation's greatest sport.
The benefit to these children in terms of physical fitness, mental
health and well being and social development are significant and well-
documented. The benefits to society as these children mature into exemplary and
responsible citizens are even more significant.
Thanks in large part to the enduring loyalty from a tight
community of donors, the Kids Hockey Advancement Society has continued to see
strong fundraising dollars come in and with the addition of new partners last
year, we've been able to maintain a high bar that we set for ourselves, even
with an economy still struggling to recover.
In July of 2010, the Society raised $15,000 to help children
acquire hockey gear and register for organized hockey through KidSport of
Calgary. An additional $1,700 was directly donated by adopting "Tuck"
the Bear, a Hand Carved Wooden Bear that sits comfortably in KidSport Calgary's
Corporate Office as their Mascot. He was introduced in 2010 and will continue
to be adopted out each year, raising funds along the way!!
The goal in 2012 is to provide funds to KidSport of Calgary, while
also personally funding individual children at the grassroots level in the
community as well. The Society has once again set a high standard that we are
committed to achieving, thus ensuring more deserving kids get the chance to
participate in organized hockey.
