Thru the Lens: Campanelli supports the First Annual Wounded Warriors Project Hockey Fundraiser Tournament for John Landry Jr.

Campanelli recently showed its support of the First Annual Wounded Warriors Project Hockey Fundraiser Tournament for John Landry Jr. Karl Dickman, Campanelli's senior project executive, organized the tournament's fundraising efforts along with John Landry Sr, Campanelli superintendent and father of a Marine who was killed in action in Iraq four years ago. The Wounded Warrior Project Hockey Fundraiser, which took place on July 15th at Boch Ice Center, raised over $5,000 in memory of John Landry Jr. The Tournament included 50 players on four teams. Corporate teams included RCH Roofing, Lampanosa Concrete Corp. and Campanelli, and a fourth team represented the Gentlemen's Hockey League. Players wore red, white and blue jerseys in honor of the armed forces. Families were invited to participate as well, and kids skated on the mini rink during the games. The tournament was followed by a cook-out and awards ceremony which included a 50-50 raffle and a speech made by a fellow marine and close family friend of the Landry's. After the Tournament, Campanelli partner Jeff DeMarco spoke about the company's involvement: "I am proud of our employees' commitment to supporting a member of our team and honoring a family member of one of our own, as well as America's armed forces."
