Southampton Coliseum has been nominated for the Kraft Hockeyville, putting them into contention for some amazing prizes, including a grand prize of $100,000 in arena upgrades as well as the chance to host a preseason NHL game.
Now the Town of Saugeen Shores is asking for everyone’s help to get to the winner's circle. We must make it through one round of judging, and then two rounds of voting in order to be named the Grand Prize winner. We need to show the judges just how much this community loves hockey!
Prior to the judges’ final selection of the top 10 community nominations, the Town is looking for the public to rally behind the Southampton Coliseum nomination and show them what Saugeen Shores can do. The nominations are judged on several factors by a panel of Kraft Hockeyville sponsors, and one of those important factors is community support.
“We need everyone to take to social media and support the nomination for the Southampton Coliseum by posting, Tweeting and Instagramming our way into contention for one of the amazing prizes offered by Kraft Hockeyville,” from a press release February 8.
Go online and post pictures and messages to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #khv_southamptoncoliseum. A minimum 250 shares must be made to be in the running for this contest. The Town will be sharing posts on the Town of Saugeen Shores, Community Services Facebook page and on the Community Services Twitter page.
If you’re not on social media, visit the Kraft Hockeyville website and add a comment using the hashtag onto the Town of Saugeen Shores’ nomination page.
If the Southampton Coliseum makes it to the top ten (announcement made March 5), voting by the public will begin, determining the top two communities. The first round of voting takes place March 13-14.
The final round of voting takes place March 20-21, a winner from which will be announced April 2, 2016.
The Grand Prize is the opportunity to host an NHL® Pre‑Season Game and also win $100,000 in arena upgrades. Second Prize is $100,000 in arena upgrades. Third Prize is $25,000 in arena upgrades.
So let’s bring Kraft Hockeyville to Saugeen Shores!
