Description

The local Wolves Ice Hockey team generated $2,000 from contributions and sponsorships at their recent fundraiser for Columbia Community Care, a non-profit that emerged during the pandemic to support families in need with food and other necessities. The team held a skating party benefit at Color Burst Ice Rink in the Merriweather District of Downtown Columbia. The Howard Hughes Corp., which owns the park and skating operation, provided 50% of ticket sale proceeds to support the team's efforts. The Wolves team includes players from Wilde Lake, Hammond, Oakland Mills, Centennial and Long Reach High Schools in Howard County. It is a Howard Scholastic Hockey Association conference team and plays in the Maryland Scholastic Hockey League, an association of over 50 school-based teams located in Maryland and the District of Columbia. The skating benefit was a community service project sponsored by the team.
