Cornwall - Oct. 23, 2011 - Hockey players wearing the colours maroon, gold, and white will be knocking door to door at several west-end neighbourhoods including Riverdale on Monday October 31st.

However they will not be wearing costumes, they will be wearing their hockey jersey's, and they won't be asking for candy, they will be asking for non perishable food items instead.

Students from the Ontario Hockey Academy will be collecting food for the Agape Food Bank.

The Ontario Hockey Academy is a high performance academic-athletic developmental training school dedicated to providing the very best in teaching academics along with advance hockey training and instruction. Student Athletes engaged in this food collecting activity will learn about the civic responsibility of volunteering and giving back to their community.

The Agape Centre relies 100 % on the donations of time, food, money, clothing, and other household items from the community to help families that access our services. The Ontario Hockey Academy is pleased to go door to door this Halloween to collect food for such an important charity in our community.
