Residents of the Goulds and beyond raised a total of $15,280 to split among three different charities at the 9th Annual St. Kevin’s High Alumni Hockey Charity Classic on March 7.
The lion’s share — $11,680 — will be donated to the Curtis Hudson Memorial Fund. Some $3,000 will be donated to Big Brothers Big Sisters, while $600 has been earmarked for the Newfoundland and Labrador Down Syndrome Society.
This year’s amount pushes the total donation amount raised over the last nine years to just over $60,000.
A number of door prizes— including an autographed Mitch Marner jersey and Shoreline Epoxy gift certificate valued at $3,000 — were also awarded.
Organizer Jason Snelgrove said the organizers are thankful for the tremendous community support and are looking forward to the 10th annual event next year
