Millbrook Minor Hockey is hosting their Winter Classic tournament on the weekend of February 7th and are hoping to use the opportunity to help the Millbrook Foodshare while they celebrate our national sport. It’s an effort they are calling “Shut out Hunger” in recognition of the goalie’s objective of earning a shutout.
The club is asking players and spectators to consider donating food items or cash to support our local food bank. To spur on donations, they will be putting together bags of food for the foodbank that they will sell for those who have come without food to donate.
The tournament action begins on Friday morning at 8 am when the U15 LL Green team kicks off the action, followed by the U15LL White team at 9 am and the U15 Rep team at 6pm. On Saturday the U18 teams join the action, beginning at 4pm when the U18 LL Green team takes the ice, followed by the U18LL White team an hour later with the U18 Rep team hitting the ice at 8pm. The club plans to ask for a donation as an entrance fee to the popular Shoot and Save Skills Competition scheduled for 1:30 on Saturday afternoon when there is a break in the tournament game action.
Drop in to the CMCC to cheer on the home teams and support their efforts to fill a hockey net or two with donations for the Millbrook Foodshare. KG
