The next 24 hours will be both exciting and anxious for the community of Wilkie as groups and individuals both young and old will be voting vigorously to get the community of Wilkie into the top two of Kraft Hockeyville.

Voting began at 7 a.m. this morning and will continue until 11:59 p.m. Monday night. Wilkie will compete against Ituna in the on-line voting.

Residents from all over the area can vote for Wilkie by going to www.khv2017.ca.

Today’s vote will determine if Wilkie makes it to the top two. If Wilkie is named Kraft Hockeyville, the community will receive $100,000 for arena upgrades and will also host an NHL exhibition game in the fall.

Anyone can vote for Wilkie and there is no limit to how many times you can vote.
