The Stanley Cup will be visiting Kanata, Ontario this week and will be making an appearance on Friday at the Kanata Sports Club/Jack Charron Arena.
Here are some of the details:
Sean O'Donnell, Stanley Cup winner with the Mighty Ducks and former Kanata Valley Laser player, is bringing Lord Stanley's cup to the Kanata Sports Club! This is an adults-only, members-only hot seat. You must be a member to purchase and use a ticket. Due to anticipated demand, tickets will be sold IN ADVANCE and only 120 are available.
