Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers hosted the community to watch Sunday’s men’s Gold medal hockey game at the Olympics in Sochi on the big screen. The event, supported by Tim Hortons, BluePrint Hockey School, Music 21 and CRS Rental Supply, was also a fundraiser for Caledon Community Services and the Canadian Ball Hockey Association. Those on hand for the festivities celebrate at the same time as the players in Sochi.
Dave Eccleston of BluePrint Hockey School and Ritchie Bros. Operations Manager Joe Lampkin were handing out prizes in a quiz held during the first intermission.
Sophie Eck, 2, of Bolton was waving the flag during the game, accompanied by her mother Marisol.
Mayor Marolyn Morrison and her husband John were among those celebrating at the end of the game.
