Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) veterans demonstrate to us the epitome of courage, altruism, leadership, integrity and perseverance. They give us the ability to see beyond the present and imagine a better future.
The Ottawa Senators pay homage to the brave men and women who serve our country along with Lépine Apartments, a prominent member of the Ottawa community, who have shared our commitment to veterans since 2015 as partners in creating and maintaining Hero's Ridge.
At each home game, a Canadian Armed Forces veteran and their family enjoy time together in Hero's Ridge - a 200-level box suite at Canadian Tire Centre. Together with our hockey fans, the crowd rises from their seats every night in a powerful moment of recognition to honour the more than 350 veterans who have been our guests in Hero's Ridge.
The Royal Canadian Legion graciously supports this initiative by giving CAF families the opportunity to nominate their loved ones to be honoured during an Ottawa Senators home game. We look forward to standing side-by-side with you to honour our heroes at an upcoming game!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee!
