Muskegon Lumberjacks News Release
To all our hockey community,
Recently, a young hockey player by the name of Dominic Switzer was on the Eastside of the state playing in a AAA showcase in Detroit, MI for Muskegon Select. One night, during the tournament, his father, Adam, passed away at the hotel...a very sad weekend.
The Muskegon Lumberjacks and the Junior Jacks youth hockey organization are teaming to raise money for Dominic's future. We want to be sure he has the ability to continue the sport he loves. Our goal is to raise $5,000 to pay for equipment, ice time and travel for the next several years. Please join us in contributing to this cause by bidding on one of these awesome jerseys or exclusive Lumberjacks experiences.
