Celebrate Canada Day with a Hockey Game for a Good Cause

by mf37 on Jun 16, 2010 6:22 PM EDT

As many of you may know, Richard Loat of the very cleverly named Canucks Hockey Blog is doing a cross-Canada road trip this summer. He'll be playing a little ball hockey against local fans and bloggers in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, Regina, Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver and Victoria. At each stop, he's hoping to generate donations for local food banks.

The Toronto game is scheduled for 3PM on Thursday, July 1st (Canada Day) at Withrow Park. The outdoor rink, where the Leafs held a public outdoor practice in 1998, is located south of the Danforth, between Logan and Carlaw. Closest Subways are Pape or Chester.

Richard is looking for players for the Toronto game. If you would like to play some ball hockey with your fellow bloggers and Leaf fans, please get in touch with Richard via email. You'll need to bring a stick and some canned goods to the rink on July 1 (I'd also suggest a cup, hockey gloves and other assorted protective gear...)

Details for the Five Hole for Food tour

Where: Withrow Park

When: Thursday, July 1st, 2010

Time: 3:00 PM EST

Food Bank Beneficiary: Second Harvest

Special Guests: Duke the Dog is going to be out for the Toronto Marlies. (If it's over 90F we can bet on how long the poor guy in the costume lasts before requiring medical assistance).

Thanks, I fixed it, although the strikethrough on Monday wouldn’t show up so I just deleted it.
