This "Meet & Greet" style cocktail reception will feature hors d'oeuvres and appetizers from Urban Deli and East Coast Bistro! Enjoy a bite to eat and stay for a drink as the cash bar will be available on site. 

 

"This is our second year being involved with the Mill Rats VIP Event! As an organization, we like to support our community as much as we can. Partnering with the Mill Rats helps us encourage people to get off their couch and come enjoy what the Uptown life style has to offer!" says Tracy Hanson from Uptown Saint John.

 

Similar to last year, the event will be held at the East End of Harbour Station on the floor. Local radio station and Mill Rats partner, 97.3 the Wave will join us on site to promote the event live! Head Coach David Cooper will be on hand to mix and mingle as well as the players and the Millies, following their rehearsal on the floor. This experience offers our season ticket holders a "Behind-the-scenes" look of pre-game action at Harbour Station!
