NEW YORK APPLE CORE JUNIOR HOCKEY TEAM COOK DINNER
FOR FAMILIES AT THE RONALD McDONALD HOUSE OF LONG ISLAND

New Hyde
Park, NY– The New York Apple Core Jr. A hockey team
is currently
experiencing their best season in over 5 years in the
Eastern Junior Hockey League, but it
has been off the ice where they have made a much bigger
impact. Since October, Apple
Core players have taken time out of their busy schedule
to cook dinner for the resident
families at The Ronald McDonald House of Long Island
(RMH-LI). “This shows the
character of the young men who make up the New York
Apple Core hockey team,” said
RMH-LI Executive Director Joanne Reda. “Not only did
they cook, but the players
purchased and donated all the necessary food and
supplies. They are all gentlemen and
they are always welcome at RMH-LI. We wish them the best
of luck throughout the
remainder of their hockey season.”
Apple Core, one
of the top junior hockey programs in the United
States,is made up of
players between the ages of 16-20 and their home rink is
Long Beach Arena. For more

“To say that I am proud of my players is a major
understatement,” said Apple Core Head
Coach Chris Cosentino. “This was an experience thatour
players will remember forever.”
RMH-LI is a ‘home-away-from home’
for families who are caring for seriously ill children
undergoing medical treatment in area hospitals. Located
on the campus of Schneider
Children’s Hospital in New Hyde Park, NY, the House
accommodates families in a warm
and supportive environment. Since opening in 1986,
approximately 13,000 families from
the United States and more than 80 countries around the
world have been served. Many of
the families are from Queens, Suffolk and Nassau
Counties, as well as the surrounding
metropolitan area. For more information about RMH-LI you
