Dear Garnet Blades Members,
Membership Levels 2015- 2016
OCTOBER
Another year is here and the excitement of cheering for our team is back again! This year marks our 25th season playing at the D1 level. Our achievements have been extraordinary along the way. The great accomplishments of this program over the past several seasons has provided proof that our support of Union Hockey has made a difference in our ability to attract great student athletes who excel in the classroom and on the ice. That is the basis of our mission and without Garnet Blades members who stand by the program every year we could not succeed. Thank you for being there for our coaches, our student athletes and our college. You have helped make the difference between being an average team in the league to being a consistent threat to win the ECAC regular season championship, The ECAC tournament and beyond. Competing for these titles and getting a chance to compete in the NCAA national tournament has become our goal at Union Hockey. We need to continue to do it the “right way”. With your help, we can maintain the high standards that people have come to admire and respect.

MEMBERSHIP “"If it were not for the Garnet Blades and their immense support, I would not have
even been recruited to Union College and would have missed out on the best 4 years of my life. The Blades provide the program with opportunities, such as recruiting all over North America, that allow the program to compete at the highest level. Their support is deeply appreciated by the whole program, from the current players, to the coaches and staff, and across the entire alumni base. It's organizations like the Garnet Blades that make me proud to say I am a part of the Union Hockey Program. Thank you" Daniel Carr Montreal Canadiens Union College Men’s Ice Hockey - Class of 2014
