Jake Kielb's Hockey Scholarship Program

 

The Jake Kielb’s Hockey Scholarship Program was created to support local youth hockey players and goalies in need of financial assistance to continue playing the sport they love. Understanding that the costs associated with hockey programs can be a barrier, the goal of this scholarship program is to assist families with the costs associated with youth hockey participation.
