2nd ANNUAL GUNS VS HOSES CHARITY HOCKEY GAME
 
The Winnipeg Police Service Patrolmen Hockey Team will be playing a friendly game of hockey against the Winnipeg Fire Department during the 2nd Annual Guns vs. Hoses Charity Hockey Game on Saturday, November 24th, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. The event will be held at the MTS Iceplex located at 3969 Portage Avenue with the doors opening at 5:00 p.m. The event is rush seating and members of the public are advised to arrive early to get a seat.
 
The goal of the event is to raise funds for families suffering from Spinal Muscular Atrophy and Muscular Dystrophy.
 
This event is modeled after a program in New York City where the New York Police Department and the New York Fire Department play in a charity hockey match up, and later participate in a "Battle of the Bands" representing Police and Fire personnel. Events like this bring members, their families, friends, and community groups closer together in support of charity.
 
The following NHLPA Members are scheduled to play and participate at the event; Andrew Ladd, Mark Stuart, Brian Little, and Olli Jokinen.
 
There will also be post game social event which will be held immediately after the game at the restaurant located at the MTS Iceplex above the arenas.
 
The contest between Police and Fire is not exclusive to the hockey game as members will also attempt to outperform each other in ticket sales. Tickets are $10.00 per person which will give participants access to both venues.
 
Tickets are available at the Winnipeg Police Credit Union and at the door.
 
Get your tickets now and see you there!
