After a fantastic second year where Five Hole for Food was able to raise over seven times more food than we did in our first year we were very excited to get a chance to share our story with the rest of the country. A montage of footage with everything from our great game in the Nation’s Capital to Helipad Hockey.
Of all the footage they even captured Richard’s “Happy Dance” after finding out they were playing hockey on the MV Highlanders with Captain Scott Chant. What a whirlwind trip with memories we will never forget. We’ve got some cool things in the works for the off season and next season. Between now and then, you better ask yourself, “Will You Play Hockey for Food?” because we’ll be back and ready to play in a city near you!
