Finstrom’s Christmas Cancer Classic
December 14 @ 3:00 pm - 6:30 pm
$8 – $50
When cancer returned for Detroit Red Wings player Jonathan Finstrom in 2002, he was given six months to live. Forced to retire from his hockey career, he would go on to survive the disease that had taken so many of his family and friends. When his mother died from breast cancer this March, he decided it was time to take action for others fighting cancer.
Jonathan Finstrom will host the Finstrom’s Christmas Cancer Classic on Sunday, Dec. 14 at 3pm at Big Boy Arena, 34400 Utica Rd., in Fraser to raise funds for Michigan families facing cancer through New Day Foundation for Families. The hockey game will pit Detroit Red Wings alumni against Guardians Ice Hockey, comprised of local first responders. The Finstrom Christmas Cancer Classic will also include raffle baskets, as well as VIP options for player meet-n-greets and dinner.
