| Thanks for the great weekend, the event was really well organized and the facility was great. Although our team didn’t do the best, we had lots of fun on the ice and having the event supporting cancer research made it all that much more enjoyable. We’ll see you again next year! |

| Our team wanted to thank you for the wonderful Hockey Fights Cancer tournament. All of our players, family and friends had a terrific time. We were especially pleased how organized and helpful you and your staff were in all aspects of this terrific event. The games ran smoothly and on-time, the officiating was exceptional and the gift bags and silent auction was a nice touch. We also had loads of fun at St. Louis Bar and Grill. The food and entertainment was fantastic!!! We will definitely be back next year. Thanks again. |

Hockey Fights Cancer 2009 was a great accomplishment. The hockey games were very exciting and the incredible volunteers were very committed thoughout the weekend. The sponsors were an important part of the funds that were raised. We are very proud of Catherine, Jeff, Nick and Taylor. Allan and I spent the weekend at the tournament and met some fabulous people who took time out of their busy schedules to help Catherine run the tournament. We look forward to 2010 for the tournament to grow. Allan and Mary Kate Duff (Mom and Dad)

The Carleton University Ice House located at 1125 Colonel By Drive. The cost is $750 per team. Each team is also asked to raise a minimum of $500 for Cancer. This could be done by either one donation or several, please see bottom of About the Cause page for an example.

Last year Michael's Flaming Hawks raised over $9,000. Michael is profiled in my about the cause page. The team was a big reason that tournament did so well. I would like to challenge all teams participating in 2010 to raise as much as possible and I hope to see the same teams participate in 2010. The tournament in 2009 was a huge success and so much fun!!
