Tackling Hunger at the 9th Annual Mind to Muscle Cup
Mind to Muscle collecting food for the Barrie Food Bank – Free admission to attend!
Join us at the Allandale Recreational Centre in Barrie on Tuesday, July 30th at 6:30 pm for the 9th Annual Mind to Muscle Cup. This year, M2M is partnering with Purolator, Dominos, and the OHL Barrie Colts to support the Barrie Food Bank and tackle hunger in our community.
The event will feature a fast-paced competitive hockey game, showcasing the exceptional talent of local players from the NHL, PRO, OHL, NCAA, and CIS. This exciting event is completely FREE for all to attend. Charlie Horse from the Barrie Colts will be present, and Purolator and their local Tackle Hunger team will be on-site collecting non-perishable food, and monetary donations. As an added incentive, free popcorn and Domino's pizza will be available for those who bring a food donation (while supplies last)!
Amid growing concerns about food insecurity in the region, the Barrie Food Bank remains a crucial resource. Sharon Palmer, the Executive Director of Barrie Food Bank, reports a dramatic 95% increase in food bank usage from last year, with over 7,000 individuals relying on the service each month. The Mind to Muscle Cup aims to alleviate this strain by bringing the community together to support Barrie Food Bank.
We need your help to make a difference! Come and enjoy the speed and skill displayed by these elite local hockey players while bringing along a food or cash donation. Admission to the event is FREE, so don't miss out!
