“We are thrilled for the City of Windsor to serve as the host community for HockeyFest this year. Downtown Windsor will be buzzing with excitement as another unforgettable event arrives in our community. Thank you to HockeyFest and the Reklaws for bringing the world’s largest street hockey festival to Windsor, and for the work you’re doing to raise money for mental health initiatives both nationally and locally, to support folks in need. Thank you to our partners at Tourism Windsor Essex for continuing to attract unique experiences to our region year after year. While folks are celebrating HockeyFest, I encourage everyone to stop by Museum Windsor’s Chimczuk Museum to see HOCKEY – an exhibition celebrating Canada’s game with a one-of-a-kind traveling exhibition on through May 11th. The display uses photographs and reproductions of key artifacts, memorabilia and works of art to present hockey highlights from yesterday and today, and looks at how the sport has influenced our lives. Building Windsor’s Future is tied to events that help to Strengthen the Core of Downtown Windsor, and that showcase the amenities and experiences that are attracting new investments, businesses, residents and visitors to Windsor and the surrounding region during this exciting time of growth for our community” said Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens.
