A Game for Megan Fundraiser - January 5th, 2019

We are asking all Toms River Blackhawks players, parents, families, and friends for your support of "A Game for Megan", a charity ice hockey game featuring members of the Jersey Shore First Responders against the Toms River Blackhawks Coaching Staff and Alumni held on January 5th, 2019. A flyer is at the bottom of this page with all of the information about the event.

On Friday, September 14, 2018, Megan Franzoso, an EMT, went into cardiac arrest for 45 minutes while at Community Medical Center in Toms River, NJ. Once a pulse was returned, Megan was flown to Temple University Medical Center in Philadelphia, PA, where she was in critical condition and spent time on life support in a medically induced coma. Megan was recently moved from the hospital to a rehabilitation center where she will spend some time learning how to walk and talk again.

At this point, we have no idea how long her recovery period will be, but we do know that she has a long and very costly road ahead of her. It is expected that her medical insurance coverage will end before her need for care does, especially because of the level of care she has been receiving (ICU, Medevac Flight).

Game details are as follows:
January 5, 2019
Doors Open at 6 p.m.
Game Starts at 7 p.m.

$10 for Adults
