Contest winner hands back prize
A recent winner of a hockey contest on Information Morning in Fredericton gave back his grand prize, asking the show hold an auction with proceeds going to a child who couldn’t afford to play hockey this year. Moosehead Breweries agreed to match the winning amount. The auction took place live on CBC Radio’s Information Morning on a few days ago and raised approximately $1,700, which will help several children play hockey in Fredericton this season.

Good on him! And Good on CBC Fredericton! Cheers to Moosehead too! If Moosehead wanted to they could support an entire team don’t you think?
I’m so glad to hear that there are still a few good people in this world who are willing to do something to benefit others. Good for him, and yaa to Moosehead too!
