Montreal Alouettes News Release
Montreal, January 19, 2005 - For the eighth consecutive season, the Alouettes will travel throughout Quebec during the winter to mingle with their fans while playing friendly hockey games. This year, in addition to helping local charities, the Alouettes' organization has decided to donate part of the profits to Red Cross to help the victims of the disaster that struck Asia last month.
This year again, fans will have the opportunity to see Sylvain Girard, Ed Philion, Bruno Heppell, Luke Fritz, Paul Lambert, Patrick Dorvélus, Philippe Girard and others starring on the ice rather than on the grass.
