The Hockey Mentors Summer Event provides a fully inclusive adaptive hockey and skating experience for children, teens, and adults with disabilities. Using specialized adaptive equipment and one-on-one on-ice support from trained volunteers, participants are able to safely skate, play hockey, and experience the joy of being on the ice—regardless of ability or prior experience.
This event is designed for the entire family. Everyone can enjoy food, swag bags, a silent auction, and off-ice activities. Whether you’re a regular Hockey Mentors guest or skating for the first time, families can relax and enjoy watching their loved one take part in a sport without barriers.
Hockey Mentors is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to removing financial and physical barriers to ice sports. The Summer Event is completely free for participants and families thanks to the generosity of sponsors, donors, and volunteers. Every dollar raised directly supports adaptive equipment, ice time, and programming that makes this day possible.
