Final Tally: Hockey Wilderness Movember Team Raises $910

by BReynolds on Dec 17, 2010 1:44 PM CST

While Movember 2010 is a fond memory already, we wanted to give it some time to simmer before reporting the final numbers. A handful of the team had matching grants from their employers, and that took a bit of time to sort out. However, we have the final number, and it much more than I expected.

I cannot speak for Nathan, but I figured this would be the two of us, we would raise $50 and we would be proud of ourselves. No one could have convinced me that the readers would respond the way they did, and together we raised $910!

Amazing. Simply, amazing. Thank you to everyone who joined the team, and to everyone who donated. We look forward to doing this again next year, when we shoot for $2000!

For the final ranks on top fundraisers, make the jump.

Rob Sasser $225

Stephen Pepper $208

Bryan Reynolds $100

Mandy Schlax $95

Chris Winner $60

Agnes Reis $52

Nathan Eide $50

Scott Anderson $45

Amazing job by Rob and Stephen to both raise over $200. To everyone who participated, please pass our Hockey Wilderness' warmest thanks for their donations. It means the world to us that people joined the fight against cancer. As I said above... let's knock it out of the park next year!

Movember

The thanks should go to you two. Reaching out to your readers was the best possible way for you guys to help the cause. I’m not sure how many of our teammates would have participated without your urgings. I’d like to applaud the Hockey Wilderness Movember Team as well as participants around the world for their efforts and donations. Great job. Next year, let’s go even bigger!

There's another $100 coming

Twitterer @jwynia selected my Movember entry as the best, and attempted to donate $100, but there was technical difficulties. He’ll try again this weekend.

I just want to thank the Hockey Wilderness community for a very successful Movember. I knew we had the grrrreatest hockey fans in the world, but this was above and beyond. We now have a goal for next year, and I hope you all join us again next November!
