EDMUNDSTON, New Brunswick – February being Suicide Prevention Month, Edmundston Blizzard management has decided that team players will wear helmets with the yellow awareness ribbon.
“The Blizzard family wholeheartedly supports this cause and wants, in its own way, to raise awareness in the region and across the Maritimes of the importance of taking care of our mental health and that of our loved ones,” says Blizzard president André Lebel.
