Ottawa Senators’ Hero’s Ridge Program for Military Veterans

Ottawa Senators’ Hero’s Ridge Program

The Royal Canadian Legion has received a generous offer from the Ottawa Senators again this year to honor a military veteran and up to 9 guests at each of the home games of the season. Lépine Apartments will host the military veteran and guests in a private suite and a formal announcement honoring their career will be made during the game. District G has been tasked as the coordinator of this program.
