Wristbands for Jabs

The Mankato Area Hockey Association acquired 500 of the 50,000 wristbands made as a fundraiser for paralyzed Benilde-St. Margaret's hockey player Jack Jablonski and will sell them for $2 apiece during Thursday's girls and boys games between Mankato East/Loyola and Mankato West. All proceeds will go to the Jablonski family. If and when the wristbands sell out, orders for more can be made.

Meanwhile, check out my Wednesday Free Press column on how local high school teams are reacting to the tragic injuries to both Jablonski and, more recently, St. Croix Lutheran's Jenna Privette.
