Still looking for ways to meet your fundraising goal?

We have the perfect program!!  It will not cost you anything - all you need to do is purchase gift cards for your favorite stores, restaurants or services (like ITunes and Gas stations).

Sounds easy -- it is!

Order gift cards for Stop and Shop for example in denominations of $ 25, $ 50 or $ 100.  You pay for the face value of the gift card and get a gift card for the full amount.  Go to Stop and Shop buy your groceries and use the gift card to pay!!

The Northern Lights get a percentage of the face value - for example 4% for Stop and Shop.  We get $ 4 for every $ 100 in Stop and Shop gift cards.  You will get credit for 70% of the proceeds for your gift card purchases toward your fundraising goal.  The other 30% goes to the NLights to cover expenses etc.

It is so easy - get into the habit of ordering ahead for all your regular purchases you are spending the money anyway and now you are getting credit toward your fundraising goal!

With the holidays coming up - buy the cards as gifts or to use when making the holiday purchases - stores like American Eagle, Macys, Banana Republic, Kohls, Dicks Sporting Goods and many more participate.  There are even ITunes gift cards.

Borders and Barnes and Noble gift cards are great teachers gifts!

You will get an email from your team manager with all the instructions and details.

See Mary Duba or email her at   --

Don't miss out !!!!!

When Coach Ken Dixon received a call from USA Hockey Magazine informing him that he was nominated by Rae Briggle, USA Hockey Assistant Executive Director for Member Services to be " Hockey Coach of the Month", he was completely surprised and not exactly sure how his name bubbled up to that level of USA Hockey. "I am honored to be considered for this distinction; however it is truly a reflection of all the players and families I have had the opportunity to work with over the past sixteen years of coaching", said Dixon. Coach Dixon has taught both boys and girls in every age bracket and is now also coaching adult women in the “Mama Lights” program. "I love teaching skating and the finer aspects that help players perform successfully on the ice, but having players who are open to learning as well as families that support the coach / player relationship is what makes being a good coach possible."
