On Sunday August 25th, from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m., the bantam AA Leaside Flames will be hosting a ball hockey tournament in the parking lot of The Local at 180 Laird Drive.

The team will be collecting hockey equipment in new or reasonably used condition (no holes, tears, mould, etc.,), hockey bags (which are perfect for delivery), as well as sticks. (Socks and jerseys are not accepted).

The equipment will be donated to the Wiikwemikoong First Nation, and any extra equipment will be provided to other First Nation communities in Manitoulin.
