Congrats to the Welland Blue Stars for being the WNHL Christmas Classic 2018 Champions. It was a great night of hockey, food and giving back to Open Arms Mission in Welland. Four teams brought in 2902 Pounds of non-perishable food items to help Welland Families, crushing last year’s record of 2000 Pounds of Food. Shout-out to Team Jacked Daniels that brought in over 900 pounds of food on their own! These WNHL guys really care and make the effort.

Thanks to Presstime Design, Rex Hotel, Erica Hodgson, Big Money Wides, Aiden Murca, Carly Jones, Fern Macleod, Megan Pew and the City of Welland Staff. Without their help this tournament simply could not have happened.

Join the Stache Team for the WNHL!

We will be getting our dusters going to support Men’s Health with our first ever Movember Campaign. We will celebrate our All-Duster Team (the five best mustaches in the WNHL) after the Christmas Classic on December 1st and announce the amount we raised. We can’t wait to see everyone’s stache on the ice for the tournament. If you are interested in participating head to https://moteam.co/wnhlwelland
