This past weekend 11 members of the Hyattsville Fire Department and a few from neighboring departments participated in the “Washington DC Burn Foundation Charity Ice Hockey Tournament.” The Hyattsville fire department footed the entrance fee and paid half of the jersey costs, while the members picked up the rest. Members played against DC fire, AAFD and Bergen Fire.

Despite losing all the games, members kept their heads up and in the game knowing that the effort was going to a good cause. Members of the team would like to thank the great fan base we had during our games and the Board of Directors for paying for the cost of the tournament. Currently, members are recovering from bruises, pulled muscles and sore bodies, but are looking forward playing in more charity ice hockey tournaments in the near future.

Game Scores:

DC 7-4

AAFD 4-3

Bergen 7-1
