In addition to the above, on Saturday night, we are planning a Dining in the Dark event, where all the patrons will be blindfolded for the entire evening dinner. We are looking to finalize a venue to host this event so more details to follow and ticket prices.
We would love it if you could spread the word in the community and on social media. Even more, if you know of anyone who is a hockey fan but has been excluded from trying/playing hockey due to vision loss, please send them our way.
CALL OUT FOR VOLUNTEERS
Are you or someone you know looking for volunteer hours? This is for you. Coaches are always welcomed to help us on and off the ice. This is a USA Hockey-sanctioned event, so a valid 2024-25 USA Hockey Number is required.

MORE WAYS TO GIVE SUPPORT
The USA Hockey Affiliate supporting this event is The Dented Puck Foundation a 501(c)(3) charity founded by blind hockey players to support the sport and grow awareness for blind hockey. The foundation uses a variety of approaches to increase awareness, community, and competition, including low-cost events and resource development. The Dented Puck Foundation also aims to create a more global support system and knowledge base for the adaptive sport of blind hockey.
If you can’t make the event but wish to contribute in some way, we are looking for charitable sponsor donations, big or small, to reduce the costs for our athletes, families and event (Meals for the athletes, Transportation costs to and from the hotel, Ice Fees, Lodging, etc).
If you are interested in making a donation or have any questions, please email Alex at Alexandros.Kapasouris@gmail.com.
We hope to see you at TCR this summer and GO SHARKS!
