KRAFT Hockeyville
Across the country, Canadians know that hockey is this nation's sport – the tie that binds us together, from Vancouver Island to St. John's. The past six years, communities across Canada have confirmed their powerful connection to hockey through their passionate involvement with KRAFT HOCKEYVILLE. Together, Kraft Canada, CBC Television, the National Hockey League (NHL) and the NHL Players' Association (NHLPA) search for the community that best embodies the spirit of hockey and hometown pride.
Congratulations to the 2011 winner of Kraft Hockeyville – Conception Bay South, NL!
On September 26th, they hosted an NHL pre-season game between the Winnipeg Jets and the Ottawa Senators. Further, they received $100,000 in arena upgrades from Kraft as well as a broadcast of CBC's Hockey Night in Canada from their community.
The other Top 5 finalists for Kraft Hockeyville in 2011 were:
Mackenzie BC, Bentley AB, Wolfe Island ON, and Saint Raymond QC.
Past winners of Kraft Hockeyville include:
Salmon River NS (2006), North Bay ON (2007), Roberval QC (2008), Terrace BC (2009), and Dundas ON (2010).
Kraft Celebration Tour
The KRAFT CELEBRATION TOUR is a unique national marketing initiative that showcases and celebrates community spirit and provides a one in ten chances to win a $25,000 community award from Kraft Canada and a live broadcast of TSN SportsCentre. From coast to coast, Canadians are invited to submit nominations highlighting a facility in town that is in need of renovating or upgrading. Following a rigorous public voting contest, 10 communities are determined to be the "winners". Each winning town received a $25,000 "refresh" grant from Kraft Canada. From August 19th to 28th, Kraft & TSN/RDS took the flagship sports news program, SPORTSCENTRE / SPORTS 30 on the road to showcase why the winning towns are such great ambassadors of Canadian culture and sport.
2011 Winning Towns:
Armstrong BC, Devon AB, Kyle SK, Estevan SK, MacGregor MB, Wallaceburg ON, Pembroke ON,
La Durantaye QC, Sackville NB, and Port Hood NS.
