The jerseys, which feature a special camo pattern, 8 Wing marks, and unique military transport vehicles in the design, will be worn by Petes players during the team's Remembrance Day night on Tuesday, November 10 against the Kingston Frontenacs.
Fans can bid on the jerseys, with the online auction open and running until Sunday, November 15 at 6pm EST. Proceeds from the sale of game-worn jerseys and socks will support the Trenton MFRC (Military Family Resource Centre). The MFRC promotes and facilitates community based services that improve the quality of life for military families.
Members of the public attended a special team practice at RCAF Flyers Arena this morning followed by a presentation to 8 Wing Command at Canex Mall and a team autograph signing along with the jersey unveiling ceremony.
While addressing the players and members of the public with a rousing speech, 436 Squadron Commanding Officer Colonel Colin Keiver noted that "I can't thank the Peterborough Petes enough for doing what they are doing for the men and women of Canadian Forces Base Trenton and their families. They are doing a great thing."
