St. Clair College Alumni Association Supports Knobby’s Kids Hockey And Skating Program With $6,000 Donation
The St. Clair College Alumni Association has donated $6,000 to the Knobby’s Kids hockey and skating program.
Knobby’s Kids, established in 2006 by Robert “Knobby” Knudsen, Jerry Slavic, and Frank Spry, addresses the need for a free hockey and skating program for children who face financial barriers to participating in organized hockey leagues or learning how to skate. Despite the unfortunate passing of the program’s founders, their legacy lives on through the dedication of Marty Kerester and community volunteers who are now managing and running the program.
The Knobby’s Kids program operates from late fall through March, providing a valuable opportunity for children to learn and play in a supportive and inclusive environment.
The donation will cover the essential costs of rink rental and insurance for the program’s Saturday morning sessions.
“The Alumni Association is pleased to support the work of the volunteers and coaches who have provided their devotion and skills to these youth in our community. Every Saturday morning, their investment in these young lives is a testament and the vision of the founders of this worthwhile group in our community” Belinda Bulhoes, President St. Clair College Alumni Association
