Pink the Rink Hockey Raises Funds for Beloit Health System Cancer Center



Members of the Blue Line Club of Beloit recently presented Beloit Health System Foundation with a check for their largest contribution to date $521. The student hockey players raised these funds at their annual "Pink the Rink 2014" events to support breast cancer patients. In addition to homemade pink ribbon sugar cookies, teams sold pink paper ribbons to honor or memorialize cancer patients. The large ribbons were displayed around the ice rink to "Pink the Rink".

In addition, players wrapped their hockey sticks and socks with pink wrapping tape to emphasize their goal during the games. The Blue Line Club is comprised of members of the Beloit Memorial High School, Rock County FURY and Beloit Youth Hockey Association teams and their families.
