Support Us
Fundraising is essential to the success of our Association.
We receive no tax funding or government support, and our operations are sustained entirely through the fundraising efforts of our members. With annual expenses exceeding $180,000, we rely on a variety of fundraising tools to help keep youth registration fees affordable and ensure our arena remains open and accessible to the community.
Fundraising Events
We host several fundraising events throughout the year that help fund our operations.
Fun Night
This is our biggest yearly fundraiser! It's a great way to have some fun with the hockey community. For information, check out our Fun Night event page.
Annual Rummage Sale
Every offseason VAHA holds a rummage sale with items donated by the community.
See the event page for more details.
Annual Golf Outing
Each year VAHA hosts a golf outing. We don't care if you can golf or not, it's all for the kids!
See the event page for the details.

Aside from participating in fundraising events, there are many other ways to help support the association.

Sign Boards
The Viroqua Area Hockey Association offers local businesses the chance to advertise with arena sign boards.
These prominently displayed signs help support youth hockey while providing valuable visibility during games and events. Annual sponsorship includes both exposure and community goodwill.
Got Cans? We’ll Take ’Em!
Help support VAHA by donating your aluminum cans! We have a collection bin located outside the rink for easy drop-off. Every can counts and helps us keep costs down while supporting our players.
Thank you for pitching in!
Engraved Bleacher Seats
The Viroqua Area Hockey Association offers a fundraising opportunity through the sale of engraved bleacher seats for $100 each.
Donors can have an individual or family name permanently painted on a 17-inch seat in the arena bleachers—serving as a lasting show of support for the community and its hockey programs.
