Game time! This Sunday, March 21st, at 4pm we’re going to play a bunch of NHL legends at The Rinks in Exeter. WE HAVE PLENTY OF TICKETS, so the rumor that the game is completely sold out is not true. There will be plenty of tickets available, so if you have not bought a ticket to the game then you can certainly show up on Sunday as we’ll be selling them at the door.
This game is going to be insane – so much fun – and we have a lot of things happening on Sunday. Of course, there will be 50/50 raffles and a bake sale. We have a lot of wonderful, very cool, items to raffle off and we also have some unbelievable items for the silent auction. Scotty Lago’s snowboard from the X Games, autographed UNH and Bruin jerseys, autographed sticks, and Bauer has given us some CRAZY items for the auction! We will have a TON of other merchandise for the silent auction and it’s really exciting! So many people have come together in order to make this event happen and I’m here to tell you that this hockey game is not an event that you will want to miss….trust me. The game starts at 4pm but we’ll be at The Rinks by 2:00 if you want to put in your early bid for Scotty Lago’s board….
The Bruins just handed us their roster for the game on Sunday……Game on.

This event couldn’t have been pulled off without the help of Sara McCorkle and her remarkable organizational skills. Thank you, Sara, you are beyond awesome! Big thanks to Dave Cropper who came through with the jerseys, ran point on The Surfers team, kept us organized, and he helped us pull our Surfers team together. Thanks to all of the players on The Surfers for selling tickets, selling pages of ads, as well as coming through with so many unreal products for the silent auction. In truth, Meighan and I had very little do do with this event and the list of folks that we need to thank is easily a mile long. You wouldn’t believe the effort that so many people put forth in order for this game to run smoothly, and thank you to all of you folks that have volunteered their time to help us on Sunday. It looks like that we will raise close to $20,000 on Sunday – hopefully more – and that’s a blessing because there are families that need our help. Molly would want us to help. We are doing some good….
See ya’ll on Sunday.
#40…..Buck
#1…….Meg
