The remaining jerseys are being raffled off and the money collected from each raffle ticket is going into a fund established by a large Hoberg family donation to provide an annual hockey scholarship in Faith\u2019s name. The jerseys will be awarded to the raffle ticket winners on February 8 at 3 pm.&nbsp; Faith\u2019s team will be wearing their purple jerseys at the 4 pm game on this date.<\/p>\n<p>The Board of Commissioners for Hoffman Estates Park District is proud to award Jay Garstecki the January 2020 Best of Hoffman Award.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hoffman Estates Park District would like to recognize Jay Garstecki as January\u2019s Best of Hoffman.
