Mission Statement

So as I mentioned in my previous post, there was an innate sense of emptiness in what I was doing, even though it was through hockey. So now is the time to explain my calling...

SHARE HOCKEY WITH UNDERPRIVILEGED CHILDREN AROUND THE WORLD, SPREADING THE HAPPINESS, VALUES, AND CULTURE OF THE SPORT, ONE PUCK AT A TIME

And so, here is my Mission Statement:
As a deep believer in the good of man, and the power of sport, I vow to have fun and teach the basic values of hockey to kids around the world. I will keep a diligent log and journal - written, and sometimes video/photo - to share with others how unique, special, and amazing my immersion into different cultures and adventures into new habitats are. With the support of generous people and corporations, I will improve the lives of underprivileged children for as long as possible, and to the greatest reaches of my ability - but never alone.
