Take Cancer. Put It On Ice. Do It Now.

We've used this space in the past to plug the great work the folks over at Put Cancer On Ice do, and yet there still is no cure for the disease, so we'll continue to tell you about them, their cause, and what they're doing about it.

Coming up next month (Saturday July 19, 2008 at 8:30 p.m., to be precise), PCOI is holding the Second Annual Dave Fay Memorial Hockey game at Kettler Capitals Iceplex in Arlington, Virginia and donating the proceeds to Hockey Fights Cancer. In addition to the game, PCOI will hold a silent auction for authentic, autographed Capitals items including a Nicklas Backstrom jersey and a Young Guns signed and framed poster.

So head on out to Kettler to watch noble Marylanders battle evil Virginians, and have some fun for a good cause and to honor a good man. And if you can't make it out there, you can always donate in other ways.
