CRD FUNDS WRANGLERS
A $500 sponsorship request by the 100 Mile House Wranglers was met by the Cariboo Regional District.
The funds were approved for playoff towels to be handed out to fans on Feb. 28 when the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League’s newest club hosts the Chase Heat in a first round playoff matchup that started Feb. 25 in Chase.
The towels are free, but the Wranglers organization is asking for donations to the British Columbia chapter of KidSport, a community-based sport-funding program.
LADIES, GIRLS INVITED
The 100 Mile Nordics Ski Society invites women and girls to the annual Ladies Ski (snowshoe) and inaugural Mad Hatter Tea Party at the 99 Mile Ski Lodge on Ainsworth Road on March 2, starting at 1 p.m.
Attendance is by donation to the 100 Mile & District Women’s Centre Society. All that is needed is a pair of skis or snowshoes and a fun, whacky hat. Snowshoes and skis are available for rent.
Experienced and friendly coaches will be on hand to give free lessons. For more information, contact Lauren at 250-791-7291.
ANTI-BULLYING NIGHT
The 100 Mile & District Minor Hockey Association is hosting an anti-bullying night at the South Cariboo Rec. Centre on March 6 from 5:30 to 9:15 p.m.
A number of on-ice and off-ice activities are planned, including a mini-stick tournament, three-on-three pond hockey and skills competition, and a radar gun set up for shooters.
The 100 Mile House Wranglers are coming out to support the event and Canlan Ice Sports is donating a hotdog and juice box for every minor hockey player.
