Victoria, BC – The Victoria Salmon Kings, proud affiliate of the Vancouver Canucks and Manitoba Moose, announced today that they have partnered once again with The Land Conservancy (TLC) to present the second annual “Eco Night” next Saturday, March 13th, 2010 versus the Idaho Steelheads. Accent Inns is proud to donate and participate in such a fun evening. Supporting partners such as the TLC is one of the key values for the Victoria BC based Hotel chain.
Together with TLC, the Salmon Kings will be making an effort to paint the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre “green” to promote ecological awareness. A special ticket promotion is now available as fans can purchase an advance ticket for Eco Night for just $18 per person. $3 from each ticket sale will be donated to TLC to help protect special places throughout British Columbia such as Madrona Farm. Advanced tickets for Eco Night can be purchased through TLC’s website at www.conservancy.bc.ca, or through Select Your Tickets at www.selectyourtickets.com or 250-220-7777.
The Salmon Kings will also be donating all proceeds from their 50/50 and Chuck-a-Puck promotions on Eco Night to TLC. The winner of the Chuck-a-Puck promotion will receive a weekend getaway to TLC’s first acquisition, South Winchelsea Island, near Nanoose Bay. The travel package includes ferry service to and from the 25-acre island, as well as accommodation in a six-person cottage.
Throughout the evening, fans can stop by and visit various display booths (Accent Inns team) of local business in the concourse area of the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre for information on their dedication to improving the environmental footprint. Fans can also visit each booth to enter for special prizes and giveaways!
