The Markham Waxers are hoping to find a budding crooner who will sing the national anthem for their home games at Markham Centennial Arena.
Craig Adams, Waxers marketing manager, said the club recently sent flyers to elementary schools in Markham informing them of an audition for their national anthem contest to be held at the Markham Centennial Community Centre’s lounge area (McCowan Road and Bullock Avenue) Nov. 14 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.
Those eligible to take part must be 13 or under, Mr. Adams said.
The promotion is in conjunction with the Town of Markham, Markham Youth Council and Zammit Real Estate.
So far, Mr. Adams said the response from principals and the school board has been overwhelmingly positive.
Candidates will sing before a panel of three Waxers players and three members of the Markham Youth Council.
From there, 10 finalists will be chosen and they will showcase their talents by singing at a Waxers’ home game (one per week for 10 weeks).
The entire school will be offered free admission while accompanied by a parent, to come out and support their fellow classmate.
The winner of the program will be decided by the entire team and fans by online voting through Facebook.
The winner will also sing the anthem at the final home regular season game and throughout the post season.
Good luck to all!!
