On Sunday the Rivermen were in attendance at the annual BBQ on the Bypass in Langley. BBQ Pitmasters from across North America competed for the coveted prize and bragging writes to be named the best BBQ creators.
There were more than 5000 people that came throughout the day. Many of which came by to say hi at our booth. Kids came by and tried to score goals in our net that we had set up and the players handed out free tickets to the fans for our Home Opener. There was even a special visit to the booth by Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese. The Mayor wished us good luck this season and to bring home the Fred Page Cup. It was great seeing everyone come out.
Speaking of the Home Opener, tickets are still available for the game this Saturday September 22, 2012. The Alberni Valley Bulldogs pay a visit to the LEC for a puck drop of 7:15pm. Tickets are only $10 for Adults, $7 for Students/Seniors, and children under 6 are always FREE. To get your tickets you can visit langleyrivermen.com, the Langley Event Centre Box Office or call (604)882-8800.

Food for Thought
If you were thinking that this Sunday would be a great day to try some BBQ then you have come to the right place. Sundays September 16, 2012 marks the 7th annual BBQ on the Bypass in Langley.
People come from all over to try some over 30 BBQ PITMASTERS creations. Pit masters get judged on their BBQ creations. The event is held on the Langley Bypass located in the Buns Master Parking lot at 20711 Langley Bypass. The Rivermen will be there, so come on by for a free ticket to the home opener or tattoo's for the kids or just to say hello. We would love to see you all down there. The event is from 10am - 4pm.
On Friday, the Rivermen pay a visit to Poirier Sports and Leisure Centre in Coquitlam to take on the Coquitlam Express. Langley will be looking to end the hot goal tending of Cole Huggins for the Express as he has been impressive thus far recording 2 shut outs in a row and earning his team 4 points after the Showcase. The Rivermen are a team to be reckoned with this season as they had 3 out of a possible 4 points themselves last weekend. Should be a great game so come on out and support your team Langley. Puck Drop is 7pm.
I couldn't think of a better weekend. Hockey and BBQ does it get any better?
As for now your up to date. See you at the rink.

Cars, Food, Fans
It was a great day on Saturday at the Langley Cruise In Car Show in Langley City. Car enthusiasts of all ages attended one of North Americas largest car shows. There were more than 600 vehicles that were up for viewing yesterday and also people were able to experience an American institution as In and Out Burger was there to provide great tasting burgers. It must have been worth the wait as there was a 2 1/2 hour wait to get one of the delicious burgers.
This was a great opportunity for Rivermen fans to come by our booth and say hi and talk hockey. I had many photo opportunities with fans as they walked by and today my hand is pretty sore with all the high fives that I received. Fans received free tickets and lots of tattoo's for the kids. Special thank you to the Rivermen players for helping hand out all the free tickets and tattoo's. Another special thank you to Levy's Source for Sports for being very accommodating to the team and myself.
Next up this busy weekend is a tilt with the Prince George Spruce Kings at the BCHL Showcase Sunday. This game marks the final game of the BCHL Showcase. If you are looking for something affordable to do today then why not come out to the Prospera Centre in Chilliwack to see your Rivermen in action. Tickets are only $8.00 for adults, $7.00 for seniors and youth and $5.00 for children. Puck drop is 6pm tonight. If you can't come out to the game you can catch all the action on PPV at fasthockey.com or Listen Live for free as Brandon Astle brings all the action as it happens at the listen live link on langleyrivermen.com.

Great Turnout in Aldergrove
