We are so grateful to our friends on the Hamilton College Women's Hockey Team for recently volunteering at the Country Pantry! 🏒💙

The team spent time sorting food and packing bags to help ensure our neighbors have access to nutritious meals. We truly appreciate their energy, teamwork, and commitment to giving back to the community.

We’re also excited to share that on February 7 at 3:00 PM, Hamilton Women’s Hockey will host a charity game against Bowdoin College, with proceeds supporting the Country Pantry.

More details coming soon on raffle baskets, t-shirts, and ways to donate—but for now, save the date and help us cheer on these incredible student-athletes who are making a difference both on and off the ice.

Thank you, Hamilton Women’s Hockey, for supporting our mission!
