Mission

It is far better to take a chance to win glorious victory even though checked by failure, than to take rank with those who know no victory nor defeat, because they have tried neither.

Theodore Roosevelt

The Mission and Goal is to receive enough $100 Refundable Deposits to the Fanship® Club to allow Hockey Fans Join Forces to purchase an existing NHL Team.

The Refundable $100 Fanship® Club Deposits will be put into Escrow at an independent third party financial institution until such time as an NHL Hockey Team is purchased.  At which time the Refundable Fanship® Club Deposits will be the source of funds used to purchase the NHL Hockey Team and provide the working capital to attract top talent to compete for and WIN the Stanley Cup.

Should we be unsuccessful in purchasing an existing NHL Hockey Team the Refundable $100 Fanship® Club Deposits, being held in escrow will be returned, less any return service charges and /or taxes deemed owed by any servicer or taxing authority.

Founder - Ken Kirkham

After receiving his MBA, Ken worked 10 years in corporate America where he became a CPA before becoming a very successful entrepreneur in both the restaurant and senior housing industries.  He recently retired after working 20 years as COO/CFO of Carillon Assisted Living seeing it grow from a start-up to a significant participant in the senior housing industry.  In terms of revenues, Carillon was on par with over half the NHL teams.

Ken always told their kids to do something you have passion for becuase it will make the work more enjoyable.  Ken has always been passionate about hockey, and what would be more enjoyable than doing something in the sport he enjoys so much.
