BRUNSWICK — The Bowdoin College ice hockey teams are scheduled to host their annual “Skate With the Polar Bears” Food Drive this Sunday, from noon to 2 p.m. at Sidney J. Watson Arena.
Admission to the open skate is one non-perishable food item or paper product to be donated to the local food bank. The free skate is open to all ages. Children are encouraged to bring a protective helmet.
“The holiday season is when food banks need our help the most,” says men’s ice hockey head coach Terry Meagher. “The demands of the season dwindle their supplies and this is a great way for us to help them replenish.”
