To provide an opportunity to our diverse population of Danbury children to learn and play the sport of Ice Hockey resulting in continuing youth and feeder programs that enable Danbury High School to bring back and sustain an Ice Hockey Team by the year 2009.

Another Skate Closer!

The Danbury Hockey Booster Club was re-established in August 2007 and
set out to make the above Mission Statement a reality and we are on
the way!

Danbury Board of Ed approves hockey co-op!

On June 11, 2008 the Danbury Board of Education voted unanimously to
allow Danbury High to co-op with one or more area Schools so Danbury Students could play varsity hockey in the 2008/2009 season. (See News
Times article in News Tab). This is a major step and the beginning of a program which will hopefully in the next 2 – 4 years stand on its own and
last for many more years!

Getting to this point was a lot of hard work and the Danbury Hockey Community came together in large numbers to work with DHS to chart a
path to establish and sustain a program. The co-op enables current HS students a place to play in a Varsity Program and also demonstrates to
our Elementary and Middle School students that there is an option for Ice Hockey at DHS. This is the perfect bridge to building a program!

There is a tremendous amount of work still to be done. The HS will focus
on formalizing a co-op with other Schools and the Booster Club must focus
on fund raising. While the co-op was approved all funding must come from donations and fund raising activities.

Please check this site regularly for the fund raising activities and schedule.

Donations: While we have a solid fund raising plan, personal donations
are key to our success. If you would like to make a contribution please
check the donation tab for instructions. Funds will go directly to offset the
cost of ice time and also to continue programs in the community.

Registration: Please register with the club by completing the form – it is important that we continue to track the number of Danbury Children participating in the great sport of Ice Hockey!
