Here! We! Go!

PRO Kid’s Training with a Pro: the Hockey Edition is back for its third year, giving kids ages 5 to 15 the chance to meet, exercise, and train with their idols.

But this year there’s a twist!

Buffalo Sabers' Carter Hutton, St. Louis Blues’ Robert Bortuzzo, as well as Ottawa Senator’s Tom Pyatt, will all be featured in one clinic. That’s one clinic, with three of your favorite Thunder Bay pros.

Assisted by up and coming local hockey players and trainers from Thrive Strength and Wellness, Robert, Carter and Tom will partake in a two-hour clinic. 

The clinic will be made up of stations run by each pro, allowing the participants to meet with all three athletes.

Registration cost is $50 per participant. The clinic will run from 6:00-8:00 pm on August 22nd. Spaces are limited so register today by call 625-8463!

We would like to recognize and thank Tbaytel for returning as the presenting sponsor for the clinic.

Annual events

PRO Kids family skates

We invite you to put on your skates and helmet and join us on the ice at the Fort William Gardens for not one but two family skates. Both skates have awesome games and prizes, face painting and special guests. Look for our Shaw Family skate this holiday season and our Mac's Family Skate next spring!

Conquer the Tower

The fundraiser that makes the biggest splash! Each fall we invite local community leaders and business owners to take the plunge off the diving towers at the Canada Games Complex. The more money raised the higher they have to jump.

 

Thank you to our 2017 sponsors
