Happy Anniversary PCOI


Put Cancer on Ice is a group of Washington Capitals fans that organizes monthly hockey games and other events (such as the Dave Fay Memorial Classic that was held in July) to contribute to the fight against cancer.

As Gavin Toner -- one of the founding members of the group -- points out, this month will see the second anniversary of the founding of the group and its monthly pick-up games for charity.
To date, PCOI has raised almost than $24,000 in this effort -- and counting -- with proceeds going to the American Cancer Society (through the Woodbridge Relay for Life) and Hockey Fights Cancer.
If your interested on what the group is up to, check out their web site, or check The Official for news on upcoming games.

To Gavin Toner, Rob Keaton and Ben Wilson, happy anniversary. Here's to hoping there will be a "Going Out of Business" game in the near future, because cancer will have been put "on ice," in no small part due to your efforts.
