Hip Poster

Saturday is shaping up to be big night at Memorial Gardens.

Laurentian Ski Hill and Deacon Wealth Management are inviting the community to their screening of the CBC and The Tragically Hip presentation of “The Tragically Hip: A National Celebration”.

Spokesperson John Strang say it’s a pub style event with satellite bars set up by the penalty box and a full service bar where the benches are.

Meantime, Conservation Authority Board Chair Dave Mendicino says the doors open at 5 pm and there will be two local bands, Break the Trend and Terrorbirds performing.

The event is general admission seating for 4,000 people and it’s free.

Donation boxes will be set up for The Gord Downie Fund For Brain Cancer Research and Laurentian Ski Hill.
