The annual Drayton Youth Centre Hockey Tournament fundraiser took place on Nov. 18 and 19.
Twelve men’s teams competed for bragging rights. The B division final took place between the Elora Lightning and Cleoridge family team from Elmira. Cleoridge came back to tie the game and win the division in a shootout.
A Drayton team, the Canucks, defeated the Glen Allen Saints to win the A division.
Organizers thanked the staff at the arena for a job well done, as well thanking all who participated in the event.
While final numbers are still being tallied, organizers report the event raised around $12,000 for the Youth Centre.
“This is a testament to the generousity of our community,” organizers state, adding a thank you to corporate sponsors who donated.
“They are the ones who make it so very successful. All of the money raised goes directly into the youth centre to be used in its operating costs as well as to provide some exciting events for those who use the centre.”
