Campus media, local bars and amateur athletes are preparing for the 17th annual CJSW Slurpee Cup street hockey tournament on August 23. The one-day tournament raises money for various charities.

“We ask local businesses and partners of the station to set up a team,” said CJSW summer promotions leader Will Cowie. “All the money raised goes towards a charity of their choice. The amount varies per year, but overall, we raise anywhere from $2,000–5,000.”

The history of the Dinos dates back to 1964. Over the course of their collegiate careers, few athletes have left their mark on the Dinos franchise the way these individuals have. The first of this two part series highlights Dinos athletes that dominated during their tenure at the University of Calgary. Part 2 will highlight athletes that have made significant social contributions to society beyond their life as a Dino.
