A Game of Heroes: Islanders Unite with Make-A-Wish
The Charlottetown Islanders are set to host one of the most meaningful games of the season on Sunday, March 15th at 2 PM when they welcome the Saint John Sea Dogs to the Eastlink Centre Charlottetown for the team’s special One Game, One Wish event.
This unforgettable afternoon of hockey will celebrate strength, courage, and the life-changing power of a wish.
