St. Vincent de Paul Society received over $4600 in funds raised by Primetime Wrestling, which recently resumed its activities in the city. Apart from delivering thrilling wrestling matches, the troupe, led by Davy Greenlees and Stuart Brown, demonstrated their commitment to community charities.
At their last event held at the House of Ancestors, Primetime Wrestling generated proceeds amounting to $4,684.50, and they happily presented a check to the St. Vincent de Paul Society. Canadian Tire, a two-time event Title Sponsor, played a vital role in enabling this donation by choosing the St. Vincent de Paul Society as the recipient of Primetime's contribution. Additionally, attendees of the wrestling events collectively donated 30 pounds of non-perishable food items.
Greenlees emphasized their dedication to the community, stating, "Community is really what we're all about." While they take pride in bringing exciting live entertainment to the town, they also recognize the significance of supporting causes that have a significant impact on the community.
Since Primetime Wrestling established itself in Prince George in October of last year, the professional wrestling league has donated more than $10,300 to local organizations. Previously, they fundraised for the Northern B.C. Crisis Prevention and Intervention Centre.
Brown revealed that wrestling will make its return to Prince George in September with two more action-packed nights. He acknowledged the challenges of scheduling indoor events during the summer when people prefer outdoor activities or vacations. Moreover, the in-demand wrestlers they bring to Prince George often have busy schedules booked several months in advance.
