Ike Eisenhour, Executive Director, Delaware Shore Field Hockey, Inc., presents a check to Linda Forte, community relations coordinator for Easterseals Delaware & Maryland’s Eastern Shore. The annual Hockey4Haxton event raised $1,100 for Easterseals to help provide therapy services for people with disabilities in Sussex County.
Hockey4Haxton is an annual indoor tournament in memory of Amanda Haxton, a member of the Delaware Shore Field Hockey community and a former athlete at Cape Henlopen High School and East Stroudsburg University. As a result of an accident, Amanda received services at Easterseals in Georgetown. Donations from the event benefit the Easterseals Early Intervention program in Georgetown and the Hockey for Haxton Scholarship fund for outstanding hockey players.
