Thunder Bay, Ont. - The Thunder Bay Border Cats have teamed up with Boston Pizza to give back to local Thunder Bay heroes. The Border Cats and Boston Pizza will be delivering pizza and baseball tickets to local heroes such as EMS Services, Police, Firefighters, nurses, volunteers, and Crossing Guards every Thursday starting May 19th. Fans will also have the opportunity to nominate someone they consider a local hero on social media by tagging Thunder Bay Border Cats and including the hash tag #HometownHeros.
