Although the fundraiser was unable to be executed in its traditional in-game format, the Peterborough and hockey community continued to show support for the Canadian Cancer Society through online donations, the online auction, and purchases of Pink in the Rink merchandise.
The Petes continue to hold the most successful partnership with the Canadian Cancer Society in the OHL and have been able to raise $812,099 for women’s cancer research in 12 years.
