On Thursday, Dec. 19, the Rayside Balfour Canadians hockey team will be hosting its first annual Christmas Food Drive Game.
The pesky Espanola Express will be in town to face the Canadians. Game time is 7 p.m. at the Chelmsford Arena.
All fans are asked to donate a non-perishable food item to the local food bank. All fans making a donation will be eligible to win a Christmas gift basket courtesy of the Royal Bank.
Royal Bank volunteers will be on-hand to accept food donations and provide a complimentary ticket to win the Christmas gift basket that will include RBC swag and free Canadians ticket vouchers.
Many local businesses are supporting this game including: Northern Life, Royal Bank, P&M Kouzzina, MLA Law, Pro Am Sportswear, Eastlink, Paris Dental, Manitoulin Transport and Sookram Bus Lines.
