"We are excited to work together and support the Knighthawks and their Cradle for the Cure game," said Rock Owner, President & GM Jamie Dawick. "As we saw at our team's charity game last weekend, we know the fans in Toronto will also jump on board to support the cause and the fundraising efforts."

Fans can bid on the game-worn, signed jerseys at www.knighthawks.com/Auction. The auction will begin on Sunday, March 31 at noon and end at 9:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 6.

"The continued partnership between the Rochester Knighthawks and CURE Childhood Cancer Association continues to be an example of how impactful community support can be," said CURE Executive Director Holly Dutcher. "Our agency relies on the kindness of the Greater Rochester community and we are so honored the Rochester Knighthawks have chosen to partner with us, but more importantly, let local families know they are not alone in their battles. There is a community of people behind them, supporting them and hoping for them."
