Sponsorship Night and Hero to Hero Salute – January 30

At the Waterloo Wolves’ game on Monday, January 30th, the team salutes two important “groups”:  the Wolves’ sponsors and the Hero to Hero organization.

Without the generousity and enthusiasm of our sponsors, the Waterloo Wolves program would not be the outstanding success story that it is.   We truly consider our many sponsors to be members of the team and we salute them!

At 7:00pm, there will be a special pre-game ceremony where the Wolves will be presenting their donations to representatives from Hero to Hero.  Hero to Hero is a non-political organization that matches emergency services personnel and sports teams with Canadian troops serving overseas. The personnel or teams from Canada send autographed shirts and other goodies to the troops, showing their support for the members of the Canadian Armed Forces.

At 7:30pm the puck will drop for another exciting Wolves game when Hamilton comes to town.  Go Wolves GO!

Wolves in Europe – Jan 7

On their final day in Europe, the Wolves started out with a guided tour of Munich.

Late in the afternoon, they travelled to Augsburg for their fifth and final game of the tour, where they won 9-1.

The Wolves have won all 5 games in Europe, and enjoyed touring The Czech Republic, Austria and Germany.  On January 8, the team will have an EARLY wake-up call followed by a full day of travel home to Canada.

Wolves in Europe – Jan 6

As the Wolves’ Friendship Tour of Europe comes to a close, they won another game, this time in Germany 11-2.

Following the game, the team toured Castle Neuschwanstein.  Ludwig II, King of Bavaria, had the castle built in the 1860s.  In modern times, Walt Disney was so taken with Neuschwanstein that he modeled the castles at Disneyland in its style.

On Saturday, January 7, the team will be having a guided tour of Munich, followed by their fifth and final game in Europe.  Go Wolves!
