North Stars present cheque to AAA Stars for Hall of Fame assistance

Oct 11, 2017 | 10:50 PM

This past summer, the Battlefords North Stars hosted the Saskatchewan Hockey Hall of Fame induction ceremony at the Civic Centre.

It was a huge event and lucky for them, many in the community helped out, including their neighbours; the midget AAA Stars.

On Tuesday night, ahead of the AAA Stars home opener against the Saskatoon Contacts, the Battlefords North Stars presented the midget club with a $1,000 cheque for helping at the induction ceremony this past July.

“When we looked at the induction ceremony, we looked into the community to see if there would be anybody [to help], it was a fairly big job to say the least, and we looked at trying to bring some supporters in to give us not only a hand, but to share in some of the profits that came out of the evening,” North Stars new president Shandon Reichert said. “It was a pretty natural fit to look at the AAA Stars.”

“Their board and their booster club supported us and it worked out for everybody in the end.”
