River Lions Partner With Canadian Tire St. Catharines

“Canadian Tire and Jumpstart are proud to partner with the River Lions organization. Jumpstart strives to help local youth take part in sports and the River Lions have helped make this happen and support the Jumpstart charity,” said Wade Robillard, General Manager, Canadian Tire St. Catharines.

The River Lions Director of Partnerships and Sales, Chris Langdon states, “We are proud to share that Jumpstart Canadian Tire St. Catharines has agreed to renew their partnership as a presenting partner for a River Lions home game in 2021. Similar to our inaugural season, with this game we hope that we will be able to work together to create a promotion to collect donations, with all proceeds given directly back to Jumpstart. This is a great initiative, and we are thrilled to be able to offer this to our fans and community again in 2021 thanks to Canadian Tire St. Catharines.”

The Niagara River Lions are one of the original six teams of the CEBL. Playing out of Meridian Centre in downtown St. Catharines, the River Lions represent the twelve municipalities of the Niagara Region while living up to the River Lions moniker of pride and strength of community. Visit www.riverlions.ca for additional details.
