HoCo Arena Funding
The HoCo Arena has been a cornerstone of healthy recreational and social activities in the Copper Country for over 40 years. Age of the building and government regulations are driving the need to upgrade the equipment and facilities.
Although we have had a significant start in our funding efforts, more support is needed. Any business, organization or individual interested in making a contribution or pledge is encouraged to contact us for additional information to assist us in reaching our goal.
Contributions can be made directly to:
City of Hancock
399 Quincy Street
Hancock, MI 49930

unobstructed area with adjacent bleacher type seating (bleacher
