Following the games, we hope the community will join us at Holiday Magic featuring the Kiwanis Santa Claus parade, and help kick off the Festival of Northern Lights in the River District.
After the parade, and the Festival lights are turned on, children and youth are invited to join us for a fun night of Organized Road Hockey along 2nd Ave between 8th and 9th Street. Teams of four (ages 8-14) can sign up. and play some old-fashioned road hockey. Players must sign up ahead to participate, wear a CSA-approved hockey helmet, and bring proper footwear, hockey gloves, and clothing to play. The Owen Sound Scotiabank branch will be hosting a warming station with hot chocolate inside the branch.
The complete schedule of events or how you can sign up for clinics, purchase tickets, join ball hockey or volunteer for the event is available at HOCKEYFEST.
