Hockey is proud to support the Kids Hockey Advancement Society’s 6th
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 18th, 2013,
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
September of 2012, the Society raised $20,000 to help children acquire hockey
gear and register for organized hockey through KidSport of Calgary. An
additional $800 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 2013 is to provide once again 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.
We
are asking for your support with this fun golf tournament. Your participation
