Cornwall - Nov. 2, 2011 - Student athletes from the Ontario Hockey Academy participated in a food drive on Halloween evening to benefit the Agapè Centre. It was a great success!

All six teams from the Ontario Hockey Academy loaded up in the team buses and headed out to various Cornwall neighbourhoods. The kids wore their team jerseys and did a very good job of representing the OHA. It was a beautiful, warm night to be walking door to door.

In total, approximately 2000 non-perishable food items were collected to help feed people in need in Cornwall. In the photo is just a fraction of the food that was collected.

Principal Dr. Kris Rothley says, “we are so proud to have our Mavericks support the local community in this way”.

The teams that collected the most food were the Girls Maroon team and the Boys White team.

All of the kids were very excited to participate, and the support of home owners who donated the food was excellent.
