The Jake Kielb’s Travel Scholarship Program was created to support local youth hockey players and goalies playing on an established USA Hockey sanctioned youth hockey travel team. Understanding that the costs associated with travel hockey programs can be preventative, the goal of this scholarship program is to assist families with the program fees associated with their travel team.
