The West Catholic Varsity Hockey team, in conjunction with our co-op with Grand Rapids Christian, is sponsoring a scrap metal drive to raise money for new equipment. To make it easy to donate, we will be holding it on two back-to-back Fridays and Saturdays – Sept.13-14 and Sept. 20-21. There will be a drop off container and players there to assist you from 3-7 p.m. on the two Fridays and from 8 a.m-5 p.m. in the parking lot of the Eagle Ice Center, located at 2600 Village Dr SE.

The team will thankfully accept anything with metal on it, in it or around it. Appliances, golf clubs, bicycles, grills, fans, cell phones, laptops, computer towers, car parts, car batteries, marine batteries, stainless steel, metal ladders, metal tools, air conditioners, gutters, coat hangers, vacuum cleaners, etc. If you have items too large to haul yourself, please contact one of the event leaders:  Dennis Santo at 616-293-2391 or santod@charter.net, or Brian Noordewier at 616-401-2487 or brian.j.noordewier@comcast.net to schedule a time for the team to pick-up your item. You may also bring your scrap metal to any of the PADNOS locations to drop off. Our account is GRA3360. Please ask them to defer billing to GRC Hockey Boosters.

PLEASE NOTE: The item(s) for pick-up need to be placed OUTSIDE of your home-either in the garage or the yard. We apologize, but we CANNOT accept TVs, computer monitors, or anything with fuel or chemicals still left in it.

Thanks for supporting your West Catholic Varsity Hockey Team!
