2nd Annual Equipment Drive

The equipment is collected and sorted and awaiting the big day – Sunday, October 10.

Hockey equipment that was collected throughout the Twin Cities area will be distributed at a give-away on Sunday, October 10 from 12 noon to 4:00 PM at the Xcel Energy Center. 

“Last season, we were able to distribute more than 2,000 pieces of hockey equipment to over 750 people, thanks to the generosity of Minnesotans,” said Let’s Play Hockey publisher Doug Johnson. “This is a great opportunity for people who want to stay in hockey, or begin to play for the first time.”

Partners for the equipment drive, in alphabetical order, include Berger Transfer, Boehm’s, FOX Sports North, the Herb Brooks Foundation, Let’s Play Hockey, Minnesota Girls Hockey Coaches Association, Minnesota High School Hockey Coaches Association, Minnesota Hockey, Minnesota Ice Arena Managers Association, Minnesota Wild, Upper Midwest High School Elite Hockey League and Westwood Sports. 

Volunteers are needed on Sunday at the Xcel to help direct people to the equipment areas and help fit.
