Episode # 5
Powell River Boxing Day soccer game started in 1968. Originally, it was called the Cup of Milk and was sponsored by The Powell River News. The funds went to Niesko and now all the funds go to the Powell River food bank and Salvation Army. The first game was the Sliammon Braves versus Powell River Villa. The format has changed over the years from Powell River Villa versus the Senior Men’s league winner or Senior Men an all-star team. In the last 4 years, the Boxing Day game fundraiser has raised over $10.000
