BIG- THANK YOU to our Cambridge Isanti Hockey Association coaches, players and members for showing your support for the 6th Annual Coaches Game.

We raised just over $2,300 and approx 200lbs of food for our local Food Shelf and our Keep a Kid in Hockey Fund. This once again breaks the record for the previous year!  The team baskets were very creative and a tremendously BIG hit again this year.  

Special Thanks to the following:

• Alicia Overby, Jamie Sherman, and Courtney Pope.  These ladies are the brains and brawn behind the event.  Please thank them when you see them.
• COACHES- if not for you, none of this would be possible.  Thanks for sacrificing the body for a noble cause.
• High School Coaches- for the use of the jerseys, time and continued support 
• ALL CIHA Managers...for all that you do, (the unsung heros) and for strongly supporting and promoting the event.
• Dave Druk- for announcing the game and keeping everyone entertained and engaged
• Shawn Garvey for running the clock
• Katie Asmussen - and ticket support cast of Andrew Aljets, Raice Reinhart and Jaxon Jones.
• David C Johnson Arena (Josh Bostrom) and the concessions stand ladies for supporting the event
• All of the bake sale people
• All of our hotdog servers
• District 10 hockey for supporting us with refs
• CIHA Schedulers Greg Jarvela, Courtney Pope and Danielle Ziebarth for working our practice and game schedules around the event
• CIHA Board of Directors for supporting and backing the event.
• The County Star for covering the event.
• All of the local business that donated and supported the event (Isanti Meats) 
• Lastly- our CIHA membership and families.  Thank you for your warm support. Its times like these that make a person proud to be a Bluejacket!

I know I very likely missed some people, and apologize for my oversight.  So THANK YOU to ALL, and Happy Holidays!

GO BLUEJACKETS!

CIHA President

As some of you may be aware, CIHA has a scholarship program that helps families in need help pay for their child to play hockey. We understand that situations arise that unfortunately may make a family choose between everyday necessities and keeping their child playing a sport they love, all while learning great life lessons.

As a 501(c)3, CIHA can accept a tax deductible donation from anyone wishing to donate to a new program that will supplement our scholarship program. We are calling it "Keep A Kid In Hockey". This can be an anonymous donation, if you wish, and can be for any amount, or be specified toward something in particular.

If you'd like to "sponsor" a mite, for example, you can donate the amount to cover that cost. If you'd like to sponsor a player whose family you know may be going through a difficult time, you can do that as well. Lastly, you can donate a specific dollar amount that will supplement our current scholarship program, which works with a specified budget and looks at each situation independently.

Thank you for your consideration and help "Keep A Kid In Hockey" if you can!

Your suggestions are very important to us, will not be posted online and will remain anonymous (clarification: if you would like to remain anonymous make sure you are not logged in, please put "anonymous" or "no name" in the name location). Suggestions are automatically forwarded to the appropriate board members.
