The Saskatchewan Roughriders will host the Hamilton Tiger Cats on Saturday and it’s all about families. The annual family day game will start with the party in the park at 10am, featuring all kinds of activities for kids and the kid at heart.
“This year’s theme is Rider Land,” stated Karina Peterson, Manager of Game Entertainment and Community for the Roughriders. “Tons of family activities happening out at party in the park. We’ve got bubbles out there, sign making, colouring pictures, and face painters.”
