Following a random draw, the Peterborough Petes have
named the winners of
the 60th anniversary rinkboard draw contest. The Kawartha Komets Special Needs Hockey
Program have won a Peterborough Memorial Centre rinkboard, while Morellos’ Independent Grocer have won a game
night sponsorship at a Petes game during the 2015/16 season.
Local
businesses, charitable organizations, and groups were given the opportunity to
enter the limited-entrant draw by purchasing a discounted commemorative ticket
package for the Petes game on Wednesday, November 18, 2015. Several
organizations participated, and despite not all winning the grand prizes, each
group has given their members, customers, and clients the opportunity to enjoy
affordable Petes hockey this season.
The contest
was initiated to provide local groups a chance to win unique advertising
opportunities. The rinkboard, valued at over $4,000 per year, will give the
Komets visibility to over 400,000 Peterborough Memorial Centre attendees from
September 2015 to August 2016.
“The
Kawartha Komets were thrilled when we heard that we had won the rinkboard
advertising contest,” noted Kawartha Komets founder Carol Fisher. “Our
partnership with the Peterborough Petes has been vital to the growth of our
program that brought Special Needs Hockey to Peterborough and the surrounding
area. As we begin our 7th season we look forward to working together with the
Petes and helping to celebrate their 60th Anniversary.”
Fans can
look forward to the Morello’s Independent Grocer game night this season, which
will include special events, contests, and more featuring Morello’s and the
positive impact they have on our community.
Morello’s
owner Dave Morello added that “As business owners who believe in community, [my
wife] Kim and I are truly honored to be involved with the Peterborough Petes,
and are looking forward to the upcoming winning season.”
For fans
looking to catch all of the excitement of the Petes’ historic 60th
season, season tickets
and flex packages are
still available, and single game tickets are set to go on sale on September 1.
The
Peterborough Petes are
the oldest continuously operating team in the Ontario Hockey League, having won
nine OHL championships and one Memorial Cup championship over 59 years. The
Petes have graduated over 180 players to the National Hockey League. For more
