This summer, more than 2,500 pairs of skates will hit the ice to play in the 2019 11 Day Power Play Community Shift to help in the fight against cancer! The 11-day game will be played in continuous shifts at Harborcenter in Buffalo, NY. This important event supports The 11 Day Power Play, raising critically-needed funds for cancer research and wellness programs at Roswell Park, Camp Good Days and Make-A-Wish WNY. While it is physically challenging to play in a marathon hockey game, it's a walk in the park compared to what most endure in their battle against cancer. Cancer is a disease that touches everyone, and The 11 Day Power Play wants to make an impact in our community. In the past two years, The 11 Day Power Play has raised nearly $2.5 million supporting cancer causes in Western New York.
Donations are graciously accepted online or by check. Please write checks out to 'The 11 Day Power Play' and send to PO Box 4, Buffalo, NY 14223. If you are interested in a sponsorship, contact Sara Schumacher today.

I'm forever grateful to my dad for introducing my late brother, Bob, and I to this sport at Ives Pond in Tonawanda as little kids where we played countless hours of shinny until we could start playing at Brighton and Lincoln in the 60's. Thanks again, Dad. I miss you. | Ron Haberer | 06/06/2019 | $50.00 | Dudas Brothers. | kevin knab | 05/31/2019 | $35.00 |
