Before the Olympic Torch Relay on Thursday, February 4th at 3:30 pm at the Brennan Park Recreation Centre Ice Arena, 1009 Centennial Way, Squamish Rotary will be hosting an international fundraising hockey event between the Twin Cities Northern Lights (www.northernlightshockey.com) and the Squamish Wolf Pack (www.squamishwolfpack.com).
