Even without a gameday, some gameday promotions need to go ahead

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

July 3, 2020

VICTORIA, B.C. — HarbourCats games focus on community, and helping those in need — even without the games, that can be done.

The team is happy to announce that even without games this summer, the HarbourCats will be doing their part, yet again, to help the great program at Anawim House keep socks in stock for those who need it most, those marginalized and living on the streets of Victoria.

With the support of the Knights of Columbus Council 13356, from St. Joseph The Worker, the HarbourCats will be holding their annual SOCK TOSS for Anawim House. People can come all day on Tuesday, July 14 (10am to 6pm) and toss new or used/laundered socks over the fence of Wilson’s Group Stadium at Royal Athletic Park, along Caledonia, with the socks going to use with Anawim’s programs. People can also make cash donations that day to Anawim’s efforts.

“Anawim is truly a leader in the stadium area that is part of North Park, we are proud to be their neighbours and to work so closely with them,” said Jim Swanson, Managing Partner of the HarbourCats. “The people who run Anawim, they get it. They see the needs, and they work to address them. To involve the volunteer spirit of the Knights of Columbus Council 13356, to help drum up interest and support, will make this a tremendous day to be in Victoria’s stadium area, giving back to the community through Anawim.”

The HarbourCats, Knights of Columbus and Anawim challenge everyone to make time on Tuesday, July 14, to come to Wilson’s Group Stadium and throw socks over the fence, with targets set out and prizes available.
