Sudburians can walk, drive or skate pre-loved hockey equipment to the Cambrian Ford dealership in New Sudbury to support a used hockey equipment drive.

The program is being run in aid of the Wayne Gretzky Foundation - the Great OneÂ?s charitable organization dedicated to providing youth throughout North America with the opportunity to experience hockey.
All equipment provided in safe, working condition is welcome. Some of the most needed items include skates, helmets, sticks, goalie equipment and gloves. The dealership will then work with local community partners to distribute donated equipment to local youth in need.
Â?There are so many kids who love the game of hockey, but will never have the chance to play,Â? said Wayne Gretzky. Â?Hockey is expensive - the equipment, the ice time, the practices all cost money...money some families just donÂ?t have. ThatÂ?s why we created the Wayne Gretzky Foundation.Â?
