Saskatchewan Roughrider Foundation Announces Plaza of Honour 13th Fan Breakfast Presented by SaskTel

 

There is no secret what has made the Saskatchewan Roughrider Football Club the brand it is –the fans!   The Riders would not be where we are today if it weren’t for our incredible fans and we believe it’s time to show our appreciation to Rider Nation with the new edition of the 13th Fan Breakfast presented by SaskTel on Saturday, October 9th  

At this event, fans will have the opportunity to kick off their game day experience with a fun filled breakfast that will feature performances by the cheer team and pep band. It will also be an opportunity for fans to hear from and honour our new player inductees to the Plaza of Honour Chris Getzlaf and Andy Fantuz.   

The Saskatchewan Roughrider Foundation is thrilled to offer our fans this unique breakfast experience to raise funds to support the Foundation and its Mental Health and Wellness projects. Awarding this kind of honour to fans and letting them join their Rider heroes in the Plaza of Honour is going to be incredible.” said Roughrider Foundation Executive Director Cindy Fuchs.
