After the tours, a pre-dinner reception for the “Meet the Spitfires” dinner will be hosted at the Serbian Centre starting at 4:30 pm.

Bob Boughner offered the following comment on the event, “it’s great that our team has the opportunity to participate in the Meet the Spitfires dinner with CAMM to help benefit the Sutherland Global Services Mickey Renaud Memorial Scholarship Fund. This event is the second one that we are involved in on Family Day to benefit this fund and we would like to thank the Canadian Association of Mold Makers for offering us with yet another chance to honour Mickey and create additional funds for the scholarship program. I am looking forward to seeing the best fans in the CHL at the dinner and encourage people to buy tickets to support this most worthwhile event.”
“Together with the Windsor Spitfires, CAMM is pleased to present fans the opportunity to meet and receive autographs from select Spitfire players with key note speaker, the reigning back to back CHL Coach of the Year, Mr. Bob Boughner President and Head Coach of the Windsor Spitfires. Bob will share his insight and motivation that afforded him the opportunity to enjoy a successful NHL career. Together with his partners Warren Rychel, Peter Dobrich and the whole Spitfire organization, Bob led the Windsor Spitfires to the 2009 Memorial Cup Championship last season. With the playoffs just around the corner and the opportunity for back to back championships, Bob will share some insight into the challenges of repeating as champions. Bob will also re-enforce to the children and students in attendance, the importance of education and how education has permitted Bob to become a prominent successful business man in his post NHL career. The proceeds of this event will also allow the Global Sutherland Mickey Renaud Scholarship Fund to offer post secondary education assistance for many years to come,” said Dan Moynahan, President of CAMM

All proceeds from the event will benefit the Sutherland Global Services Mickey Renaud Memorial Scholarship Fund. For more information about the fund, please click HERE.
