Guns, hoses back on the ice

Firefighters are shooting for victory at the fifth annual Guns and Hoses Hockey Game next month

Firefighters are shooting for victory at the fifth annual Guns and Hoses Hockey Game next month.

“That’s the plan. Hopefully we’ll give a better show this year as we were missing a couple of guys last year,” said organizer firefighter Jeff Minhinnick about why firefighters lost last year.

The game, a fundraiser for the local Jumpstart program that helps children who can’t afford to play sports get in the game, pits the Terrace RCMP (Guns) against the Terrace Firefighters (Hoses).

And all the money raised goes to local children, said Minhinnick.

The game runs Nov. 8 at the arena. Doors open at 6 p.m., the puck drops at 7 p.m. Timbits shoot for loot, 50/50 draw, puck toss, and more. Buy a smoothie and proceeds go to Jumpstart. Tickets on sale at Canadian Tire, Sportchek and Pita Pit.
