It’s become a holiday season tradition in recent years, and it is happening again next week in support of Christmas Cheer in Morden.
The Morden Thunder take on the ‘Guns N’ Hoses’ team of police officers and firefighters in the annual fundraiser for the Morden Christmas Cheer.
The evening gets underway at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 29 at the Access Event Centre. Admission for students is by donation, while adults is $5 with a donation to the Cheer Board.
“This is something we had done in the past. It went away for a couple years, but it’s back again,” Sgt. Sean Aune said last Thursday as the two sides posed for a promotional photo outside the Morden fire hall. “What better way for us to go have some fun and make it an entertaining time for the crowd and to support something as worthwhile as Christmas cheer.
“There will be a bit of shenanigans going on,” he said, agreeing there is a bit of a friendly, competitive rivalry. “The goal ultimately is Christmas cheer, to raise some money and some awareness for it, so it’s a good combination.”
