Every November, players on the MDSC All Stars team, many of whom have a loved one with Down syndrome, sharpen their skates to face-off against the Bruins greats of yesteryear.  For sixteen years, the MDSC and the Boston Bruins Alumni have joined forces to support people with Down syndrome and their families.  The steadfast support has raised significant funds to benefit MDSC's programs and services and has helped the general public understand that people with Down syndrome should not be defined by their diagnosis.  
 
This year, the Boston Bruins Alumni have completely re-imagined the charity hockey program during COVID-9, so that our skaters can safely enjoy hockey while raising funds to support the important work of the MDSC.  Now more than ever, the MDSC needs support to continue to be able to provide programs and services for individuals with Down syndrome and their families.

On the anniversary of Ace's tragic passing on 9-11-2001, teammate Rick Smith recalls Ace and his legacy carried on by the Ace Bailey Children's Foundation.

Bruins Alumni Rick Middleton, Frank Simonetti, Glen Featherstone and David A. Jensen took part in a rewarding anti-bullying street hockey event at Whitinsville Christian School in Whitinsville, MA.  The program was targeted to grades 6-8 and the WC students were cooperative, inquisitive and attentive.  The event was held in conjunction with Hockey Cares, Inc and DAJ Hockey.

The presentation took place in WC's "classic" gym and later the players toured the spectacular expanded gymnasium, easily won of the most modern and impressive such facilities in Central Massachusetts.

In addition to the players, the event was facilitated by Shawn Horgan, Brian Schofield, Mark Willand and the professional and friendly Whitinsville Christian faculty and staff.
