Potsdam Hockey's Angelman Syndrome Awareness Game

Want to join in making a difference? Potsdam Men's Ice Hockey is raising money to hold a special event for the  Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics. Angelman Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that impacts the nervous system. Characteristic features of this condition include delayed development, intellectual disability, severe speech impairment, and problems with movement and balance. We are asking for donations to host a "Hockey For The Angel's Night" at Maxcy Hall this season. All proceeds from the event and leftover donations will be sent to the Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics.  We are seeking $6,000 to use towards funding the event. Custom jersey's will be worn by players then auctioned off after the game. Tee-shirts will be sold at the door for fans attending the event. Other special events will be held in the rink during the game. We want this night to be rememberable for everyone involved. No one person can do everything, but together we all can do something. More information about Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics: FAST is an all-volunteer organization of families and professionals dedicated to finding a cure for Angelman Syndrome through the funding of an aggressive research agenda, education, and advocacy. The Foundation is committed to assisting individuals living with Angelman Syndrome to realize their full potential and quality of life.
