Blue and White Night: A Celebration of Athletic Pride & Community Support

Join the StFX Athletics community at Oak Manor this Thursday, March 13th, for a night of fun, community, and giving back with the highly anticipated ‘Blue and White Night’.

This Thursday, Oak Manor will host an unforgettable event aimed at uniting the StFX Athletics community, raising funds for the Athletic Therapy department, and providing a much-needed break for student-athletes as they approach the end of the semester.

This evening will feature an exciting line-up of entertainment, kicking off at 7 pm with musical bingo hosted by local comedian Brad Ball, followed by live music from Desmond Thomas at 9 pm. Whether you’re an athlete, a supporter, or simply looking to unwind, the evening promises something for everyone. Not only will the night be filled with entertainment, but attendees can also take part in raffles and enjoy delicious baked goods from local baker Sam Diltz, keeper for the StFX men’s soccer team.

Event coordinator Katie Yanicki states, “Our primary goal for this event is to foster connections between club and varsity athletes while providing a fun-packed evening in support of the athletic therapy department of StFX Athletics. With the Athletic Therapy clinic recently extending its services to club athletes, we see this as an opportunity for all athletes at StFX to give back to those who help them perform and recover throughout the year”.

This event will also feature a raffle, with prizes generously donated by local businesses such as Cleve’s Source for Sports, Canadian Tire, SportChek, and Oak Manor by Burnside. The diverse crowd of athletes and their supporters coming together in the spirit of StFX pride offers the chance to raise significant funds, that will go towards the continuation of services offered by the athletic therapy department.

The coordinators of this event invite all attendees to wear blue and white in support of StFX and its athletics, to unite the athletics community and cultivate a strong sense of school spirit throughout the evening. ‘Blue and White Night’ is more than just a fundraiser—it’s an opportunity to connect, celebrate, and give back. Whether you are a varsity athlete, club athlete, or an enthusiastic supporter, your presence will help make the night a success—don’t miss your opportunity to be part of an unforgettable evening.
