The 2021 Alumni game was a huge success! Thank you to the 30+ alumni that were there. It was great seeing you on the ice and catching up with you. Hopefully we'll see everyone back next year and a few more that were unable to make it this time. 

The Veterans Shelter reached out to offer their gratitude and appreciation for being chosen by BGHW Stampede for the charity skate. They found the donation to be especially meaningful during this Thanksgiving season. The donation of $3,700 will support housing and job programs for veterans in northern Illinois. The hundreds of donation items will stock their outreach van and Freedom Commissary for the winter season. A shirt and basket of Stewart’s Stampede Coffee was also donated to the staff at the shelter.
Big thanks to all the players and families that contributed their time to make it happen.

Congratulations to the Loch family on the Blackhawk tickets raffle!
