Join us on July 26 at Shaw Park to cheer on your Winnipeg Goldeyes! Before the game begins, we’ll be collecting plastic bags on the Goldeyes Promenade for our Bag it Forward program with Winnipeg Harvest. These plastic bags will be used to create emergency food kits for families in need.
Anyone who donates plastic bags at the game will be entered to win $50 in Goldeyes Fish Fins.

Background
Each year, Winnipeg Harvest uses around 1 million plastic bags. In response to that, Bag it Forward was created to give Manitobans more options on how they can reduce, reuse, and recycle the plastic bags in their homes. This program encourages consumers from across the province to drop off their gently-used plastic bags at Winnipeg Harvest or their local food bank so they can be reused to create food kits for families in need.
