Oops! I accidentally erased the chat. Me and the boys had some fun! Catch us next time!

On the last day of Movember...

Day 30 and No More (Dec.1 it will be gone!)

This is a short tribute, thank you, end-of-month reflection on what was Movember.

Tribute: This is to all those who are in the hockey community and beyond, who have been affected by cancer. We donate our faces to you!

Thanks: This is to all those "Mo Bro's" who did actually donate their face (we had some fun, but I think the consensus is that we are ready to ditch the 'stache). Check out www.UO-MoBro.com to see this list of all the great people who joined our team.

End-of-month Reflection: As of this writing, we have earned nearly $1200 in one month, which goes through my Zebra Foundation charity and on to the NHLOA's Zebras Care. Check out this blog for updates on the fabulous things that the NHLOA will do with the money. Good, heart-warming stuff.

Monthly highlights included:

• the "Movember for Moensie" pick up hockey game

Movember Charity Hockey Game

Playing for a Good Cause (and FUN!)

On November 15, 2010, a group of hockey refs played their monthly pick up hockey game, but this time they donated money for the Ultimate Officials' Movember cause.  The game was played in honor of Paul Moen, who is a long time hockey referee and coach in South St. Paul, MN.  Paul is a recent cancer survivor.

Team White won the game 16-11 over Team Black.  The game, as always, was a BLAST!
