DinoMights is very thankful to be a part of the NHL Hockey is for Everyone initiative.
Hockey is for Everyone provides support and unique programming to non-profit youth hockey organizations across North America that are committed to offering children of all backgrounds opportunities to play hockey. The initiative is supported by NHL member clubs, players, NHL alumni, and fans. To date, Hockey is for Everyone has exposed close to 45,000 boys and girls to unique hockey experiences.
To celebrate this initiative, the National Hockey League hosts the annual Hockey is for Everyone Month in February. The league-wide initiative includes numerous activities to promote the diversity of the game that involve our clubs, players, alumni, fans, and grass-roots diversity programs, all with the goal of raising awareness and celebrating the growth of the game.
DinoMights was able to have some once in a lifetime experiences during 2009 Hockey is for Everyone Month! The PeeWees went to Detroit for the Hockey in the Hood Tournament, and the Mites were featured at intermission during the Minnesota Wild's Hockey is for Everyone Night on Feb. 14.
