This year I have been asked to skate to raise awareness for cancer research! We are joining the 11 Day Power Play to raise money for Camp Good Hope, Make A Wish WNY, and Rosewell Park for Cancer Research. Unfortunately, many of us and our families have been impacted by cancer in one form or another. This year I am playing for my Uncle Dan who is currently fighting/ beating Prostate Cancer. Also, my youth hockey Coach, Michael Yutzler who was just diagnosed with Leukemia a few weeks ago and all of the people close to us who have suffered from this awful disease. Please help us reach our funding goals!!! Help our 11 day Power Play > CANCER!!
This summer, more than 2,500 pairs of skates will hit the ice to play in the 2019 11 Day Power Play Community Shift to help in the fight against cancer! The 11-day game will be played in continuous shifts at Harborcenter in Buffalo, NY. This important event supports The 11 Day Power Play, raising critically-needed funds for cancer research and wellness programs at Roswell Park, Camp Good Days and Make-A-Wish WNY. While it is physically challenging to play in a marathon hockey game, it's a walk in the park compared to what most endure in their battle against cancer. Cancer is a disease that touches everyone, and The 11 Day Power Play wants to make an impact in our community. In the past two years, The 11 Day Power Play has raised nearly $2.5 million supporting cancer causes in Western New York.
