Not well known is that the expensive sport is fully supported by private donations and parent fundraising. While many other sports are funded through school athletic program budgets, ice hockey is not. The Wayland Hockey Association (WHA) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that fundraises on behalf of the student skaters.
For the third year, the WHA will publish a 40-page player and team program. This program offers area businesses an opportunity to advertise inexpensively throughout the local Weston and Wayland communities. The book is distributed at all home Weston and Wayland games. Advertisements for the upcoming winter season are available until November 30 through the Association's website.
