While this isn’t a sporting event per se, it did feature some sport related booths. The annual event is organized by the Sooke Lions and a shout out to them, it brings together business and community organizations under one roof to showcase to the public. If you’re running your sport organization as a business and want to showcase your product to the local community, be here next year. The parking lot was full and there was a steady stream of visitors at the booths.
The Sooke Lions put on the event and before you even get inside you’re treated to a BBQ. Hot dogs and hamburgers at a reasonable cost.
The hockey championship banners proudly hang from the rafters as a reminder that skating and hockey will return after the summer.
