(Vancouver) When the game ends between the BC Lions and Calgary Stampeders and the lights go out at BC Place on Friday night, the fun will just be starting for 500 local Scouts as they spend the night camped out in the province’s one-of-a-kind stadium.
“We are very pleased to welcome Scouts from across the lower mainland to spend the night in the Lions den,” said president and CEO Dennis Skulsky. “Thanks to our valued partners at BC Place, 500 young people will have a chance to experience a uniquely fun and memorable night.”
Following the Lions and Stampeders tilt this Friday, 500 Scouts will hike up to the stadium’s fourth level to take in a movie before camping out for the night.
Kathy deLisser, Assistant General Manager at BC Place added: “BC Place is not only home to the most spectacular events in the province, it’s also where community groups come to enjoy these once-in-a-lifetime experiences. We are pleased to offer this unique opportunity to our local Scouts – it will make for a very memorable night.”
The BC Lions take on the Calgary Stampeders at BC Place on Friday, November 1 at 7:00 pm presented by Nissan. Tickets in the Gemstone Gridiron Deck ($30) and Freshslice Family Zone ($25) are available at Ticketmaster.ca.
