Bela Joins the Portland Pirates

On October 25th, we joined the Portland Pirates in supporting Breast Cancer Awareness for their annual "Pink in the Rink" game. The Portland Pirates wore special pink jerseys and fans came to the rink wearing pink colors to show their support. We were proud to be a part of the event and donated a portion of our sales that evening to American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. BelaHockey also provided pink and blue jerseys for Casco Bay Hockey's U14 team that skated on the ice between periods. Even little Bela made a special appearance!

We had so much fun supporting our local AHL team and plan to come back in the spring for their annual Girl Scouts night.

Here's Bela in all her gear!

Players Bench

In October, we hosted an autograph session with Cammi at the Players Bench retail store in Westminster, Colorado. The local pro-shop is carrying select products from the BelaHockey line. We decided to bring Cammi over to the store after her inauguration into the Hall of Fame in Denver. Girls from all over the state came to meet Cammi and have her autograph their sticks, jerseys, Katie Kaps, cereal boxes, and more.

Here are some photos from the signing.

On the Ice with Arvada

After the autograph session at Players Bench, we organized a free skate at the Apex Center in Arvada, Colorado. Girls 19 and under were invited to skate with Cammi the day after she became the first female inducted into the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. More than 100 girls came to join Cammi on the ice and BelaHockey received a very warm welcome from the Arvada and Colorodo Select girls teams. A big thanks to Coach Jennifer Tatnall and the Arvada parents for all their help coordinating our visit. We hope to be back again soon!

BelaHockey Visits the Colorado Avalanche

On Thursday, October 9, BelaHockey was at the Colorado Avalanche vs. Bruins game in Denver. Cammi was being honored at the game prior to her induction into the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. BelaHockey was there to support Cammi and to show off our gear for girls to the Denver fans.

Welcome to the Bela Blog!

We have been busy since opening our website last December and have had the opportunity to meet many hockey girls and moms. We wanted to create the "Bela Blog" to have a place to share some of our experiences and also to hear from you. We founded BelaHockey last year to offer a line of gear and apparel just for girls in hopes of getting more girls out on the ice. The year has been very successful and we hope to just keep growing. Please let us know what you think. We are always interested in hearing ideas for new products and what designs do and don't appeal to you.

We just returned from Denver, Colorado where Cammi was inducted into the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. We were able to organize a free skate with over 100 girls while we were there. We will post photos from the events soon and also let you know where we'll be next!
