SAINT JOHN, NB --- Saint John Sea Dogs President Wayne Long has announced that the team will be holding a special clothing drive at this Sunday's home game versus the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles (Feb. 14, 4pm).

As part of Aéropostale, Incorporated's annual Teens for Jeans campaign, the Sea Dogs will be collecting used, lightly-worn jeans prior to Sunday afternoon's contest. This year's campaign is being conducted in partnership with DoSomething.Org, with Aéropostale, Inc. set to match the first 100,000 pairs of jeans donated as part of the relief effort in Haiti. A total of 200,000 pairs of jeans will be collected for victims of the earthquake, with the balance set to be distributed to local homeless shelters.

"This is a very worthwhile initiative that we're proud to lend our support to," says Long. "We hope that Sea Dogs fans will help make this year's Teens for Jeans campaign a success."

Currently leading the QMJHL with a record of 44-8-1-0, Saint John will kick off a three-game home stand tonight at 7pm versus the Acadie-Bathurst Titan. Tickets to all upcoming Sea Dogs home games are available by calling the Harbour Station Box Office at (506) 657-1234, or by visiting www.harbourstation.ca.
