During Hockey Weekend Across America, January 29-31, 2010, a group of disabled athletes will make history by visiting all 54 New Jersey ice rinks in just 54 hours on a mission to raise awareness, change perceptions, and influence local ice rinks to allocate just one hour of ice time per week, in season, to disabled hockey. The group includes disabled hockey players of all kinds and is led by a pair of brothers from New Jersey, Jon and Andrew Schwartz, who each coach disabled teams in the area.

This incredible, 1,370-mile, record-setting journey is entitled EveryBODY Skates New Jersey (ESNJ), and will take place during Hockey Weekend Across America.  Track their progress and sign their petition in support of their mission at www.everybodyskates.com.  You can also follow ESNJ on Facebook and Twitter @54in54.
