Snag a slice to help support local athletes

Eat like a pig during Kid Sport Peace Country’s Pizza Pig out on Thursday, October 16th.

Seven different pizzerias from around the peace region will be competing for Grande Prairies best pizza.

All the fund’s raised in the event will go back to KidSport, the charity specializes in making sure kids can play sports if the family cannot afford to register them. Fundraising has been crucial to the charity this year, as they have given out more than 340 grants on the year.

KidSport’s Karna Germsheid says it’s important that kids get in involved in sports at such a young age.

“To have children be engaged and learning life skills, there is absolutely no better way to do it then to have them in sports.”

Germsheid also mentioned that the demand for grants this year are way higher than expected.

“We have doubled our grants in the past year.”

The event will take place at the Canadian Brewhouse, doors are planned to open at 5pm and the event will run until 8.

Ticket’s for the event will cost $30 for an adult and $14 for kids.
