EGMHA’s 10th Anniversary   

Food Drive – Sunday, November 26, 2017
Over the first 9 years of this food drive EG players have donated over 115,000 lbs of food!

Our GOAL this year is to add another 15,000 lbs!

Rules, Regulations and Notes

1. The goal of this food drive is to get much needed food donations for local, less fortunate families while

   teaching our kids the importance of “giving back” with something that most of us take for granted – FOOD!

2. Players are expected to contribute at least 50% of the food weight they donate by their own activities.

   Parents are encouraged to create jobs for their players which will earn them food donations.

3. Team weigh-ins will take place in the Main Lobby of the arena on Sunday, NOVEMBER 26th, 8:00am-3:30pm.

4. Each team should designate a TEAM AMBASSADOR (ideally the team captain or a volunteer from the team)

   who will promote and organize this activity for their team, including the Team Weigh-In on Nov 26th.

5. Each team will sort their food and deposit it into the correct bins directly after it is weighed. Team pictures are encouraged after food is dropped off!

6. All donated FOOD MUST BE NON-PERISHABLE. NOTE - We welcome non-perishable Juices, but do not accept Bottled Water.

7. TEAM PRIZES - Teams will compete against their fellow Eagles teams within each category (see below). Winning Teams in each category will be awarded based on Total Team Weight.

    REP Category – will include all EG Rep teams and EG Select Teams
    HOUSE LEAGUE Category – will include all HL teams and Local Loop Teams

   Each of the Winning Teams will receive the following prize:
    1 HOUR OF FREE ICE FROM THE EGMHA AT SHARON ARENA (to do what the team wants, not the coach!)

    A $100 DONATION TOWARD THEIR TEAMBUILDING EVENT, sponsored by First Power Generators.

8. We have chosen a goal of 15lbs of food per player, however there is no maximum to the amount you can collect! All players who collect 100lbs will be entered into a draw to win 1 of 5 special prices.

   The real prize here is the feeling of satisfaction each player gets by earning their food donation and GIVING BACK to a less fortunate family in their Community!! GO EAGLES!!
