If you’ve read any of what I’ve written since joining GMG, you probably know that my boys play a lot of hockey and it is a big part of their childhoods as well as our lives.
School vacation week was certainly no different. Thatcher’s team was entered into a four-day tournament sponsored by the Boston Bruins. While they ultimately did not win the tournament, they were one of the finalists, and for that they were handsomely rewarded. Medals, hats, backpacks, team photos, etc….and then, the awesome icing on the cake, tickets for the entire team, coaches, and one parent per child to the coveted Winter Classic.
Not only did they score tickets, but they were given front row seats. Granted, being only 8-years old and a bit vertically challenged, they had a difficult time seeing the action take place way out in the center of the Pat’s playing field….but awesome seats nonetheless.
Kudos to the Boston Bruins for once again rewarding these young, budding athletes and helping to create memories to last a lifetime.
