2008: The first year of the tournament featured 9 teams from New Hampshire and Vermont that gathered to help raise
funds for Brianna Beland and her family.
The tournament took place on January 26 & 27, 2008 at Lebanon
High School in Lebanon, NH. Brianna and her parents found out that at only 2 years old she was about to
embark on a battle against Leukemia. Through the efforts of the teams who braved the cold and snow over $7600
dollars were raised ($5000 of which was through an anonymous private donation).
2009: The
tournament grew from 9 teams to 14 teams as the tournament took place January 24 & 25. Thanks to the teams
coping with the very cold temperatures we were able to raise $3000 to be distributed to the Prevent Child Abuse Organizations
of New Hampshire and Vermont. Thank you to all who participated!
2010: Brianna Beland came out to receive the opening pitch from CC
the Cat (Mascot for 105.3 Cat Country) and thrilled everyone with how well she is recovering from her battle with leukemia.
The tournament once again grew, this time from 14 teams to 15 teams and took place on January 30-31. Despite rain leaving
us with no snow and very challenging playing conditions we raised $3725 to be distributed to The Prevent Child Abuse Organizations
of Vermont and New Hampshire. Words can't express how grateful we are to everyone who endured the brutal playing surfaces
and helped ensure yet another successful tournament weekend.
