Harold Mann to Drop the Puck on Campbell's Game Night

PRINCE GEORGE, BC- Cougars fans can look forward to an entertaining evening as the team finishes up a six game home stand on Friday, December 4th for Campbell’s Night.

The Cougars are proud to welcome Light Middle Weight Boxing Champion, Harold Mann, to drop the puck as they take on the Kootenay Ice that evening. Mann, a Prince George resident, won the title when he competed in the British Commonwealth Games in 1962. He also took home gold at the Canadian Amateur Boxing Championships in 1958, 1961, and 1962.

The celebration of local athletes will continue as Mayor Dan Rogers presents #8, Brett Connolly, with a gold medal from this summer’s Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament. Connolly played for Canada’s Summer Under-18 squad in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, getting an assist in Canada’s championship game. There were no medals presented at the tournament, but Hockey Canada has provided gold medals for the players who took part in the Ivan Hlinka Tournament, which Connolly will receive Friday.

Save-On-Foods will be on the concourse serving up samples of Campbell’s Chili. Before the game, the Cougars player with the best academic record will receive a check for $200 courtesy of Campbell’s and the Chunky Academic Achievement Award.

Group tickets are available for the December 4th game and can be purchased by contacting Amy or Andy at the Cougars office at 250-561-0783.
