We are a group of players and parents trying to save roller hockey in PDX.
With the one facility closing this October, players and kids will not have a place to develop and play competitively. We are working with THPRD to give the rink a facelift and make it safe to continue to play roller hockey. We are looking to fix the concrete floor and boards. We hope to give everyone a chance to play and to play safely for free. Please donate anything you can, all donations will go to rebuilding the rink. If we are unable to fix the THPRD Tualatin Hills Outdoor Roller Hockey Rink @ 50 NW 158th Ave, Beaverton, OR 97006. We will work as a community to figure out where we should allocate the funds to best suit reviving the roller hockey community for generations to come.
The Challenge: Roller hockey has been an integral part of our lives, fostering friendships, teamwork, and a love for the game. The closure of local rinks has contributed to the decline in our roller hockey ecosystem.
Why Your Support Matters: By contributing to this campaign, you're directly impacting the future of roller hockey. Your donation will go towards the following vital areas:
1. Facility Upkeep and reconditioning: Ensuring that the local outside roller hockey rink is maintained and accessible is essential for the sport's survival. Your support will help cover the costs of reconditioning and maintaining these spaces.
2. Youth Development: We believe in nurturing the next generation of roller hockey players. Funds will be used to establish youth development programs, offering opportunities for children to learn and grow through the sport.
3. League and Tournament Support: Leagues and tournaments are the heartbeat of roller hockey. Donations will assist in providing a place to continue playing.
Our Commitment: Transparency and accountability are our top priorities. We will regularly update you on how your donations are being utilized. We'll share stories of individuals whose lives have been positively impacted by your generosity. Every dollar you contribute will be a step towards safeguarding roller hockey's future.
Spread the Word: While financial support is critical, spreading awareness is equally vital. Share our campaign with your friends, family, and social networks. Let's unite in our love for roller hockey and encourage others to join our cause.
Conclusion: Roller hockey has woven a tapestry of memories, friendships, and shared experiences that we cherish deeply. It's up to us to come together and ensure that future generations can experience the same joys. Your contribution, no matter the size, can make a significant difference. Join us in saving our roller hockey community today!
