Huskie alumni giving back

From the beginning of the Home Ice Campaign, Huskie Hockey Alumni knew they needed to be involved and give to this inspiring project.

The group set a lofty goal and by late March of this year had achieved tremendous results from alumni at home and across Canada.

We celebrate Huskie Hockey Alumni's cumulative giving of $2.5 million, which will help fund Merlis Belsher Place – a modern, twin-pad ice facility at the U of S that's greatly needed for university and minor hockey.

"As a group, we felt it was important to support this significant project," said Tim Hodgson, Chair of the Home Ice Campaign and Huskie Hockey alumnus. "This total represents more than a year of hard work for Huskie Hockey Alumni across Canada and the United States and we are thrilled it will support such an amazing project."
