Hockey Showdown for Food

by | Jan 22, 2015 | Web Archive

The NAIT Ooks men’s hockey team will embark upon their battle against the SAIT Trojans this month to see who can
raise the most monetary and food donations for their respective schools’ food banks.

January is an important month for food banks as they work to replenish their inventories after the busy holiday season. So let’s help them out and start 2015 on the right foot by supporting those in need in our surrounding
communities.

The Ooks will be in action at NAIT Arena on Jan. 30 to take on one of their most competitive rivals, the SAIT Trojans. However, this time around there is more on the line than just four points in the standings. The Ooks need your help as they have challenged SAIT to see who can raise the most donations for the Food Bank by the end of January. Enactus NAIT and the Athletics Association have teamed up to bring you this event and there are a number of ways that you can help support the cause.

Come visit us at our booths where you can enter our raffle to win two gold seats to an Edmonton Oilers game ($370 value) as well as some other amazing prizes. You are also encouraged to bring in any nonperishable food items as we will have food hampers set up in various areas around campus.

Note: All food donations and proceeds from our raffle will be donated to The Edmonton Food Bank at the end of the
month.

Booths will be set up on campus in the South Lobby near the Common Market from 12 p.m.-1 p.m. on the following days:

  • Wednesday, Jan. 21
  • Thursday, Jan. 22
  • Monday, Jan. 26
  • Wednesday, Jan. 28
  • Thursday, Jan. 29

Any donation would be greatly appreciated and we thank you for your support.

Your Ooks hope to see you in the stands on the 30th as we will have more amazing prizes to give away when the puck drops at 7 p.m.
