OSHAWA — The Friends of the Greenbelt Foundation is celebrating the fifth anniversary of the greenbelt this weekend with a special event at Sunday night’s Oshawa Generals game.

The Greenbelt Foundation has partnered with the Foundation for Building Sustainable Communities for the event, which takes place as the Gens face off against the Saginaw Spirit at the General Motors Centre.

During the celebration, T-shirts will be launched into the crowd and screens will showcase videos about the greenbelt, clean water and local food.

Outside the arena, Durham’s own Kent Farms will offer patrons a taste of their greenbelt-grown hot apple cider, and fans will have the opportunity to donate to the Child Nutrition Program, which provides healthy snacks to elementary school children throughout Durham.

Fans are encouraged to wear green to the game to show their support for the greenbelt.

The game starts at 6 p.m. Tickets are $16, with funds raised going to support Durham’s Child Nutrition Program.
