Vikes Championship Breakfast makes first appearance in CARSA performance gym

The Vikes Championship Breakfast is the largest fundraiser for the varsity programs, and this year, the annual event will be hosted in the CARSA performance gym, featuring four-time Olympic triathlete Simon Whitfield as the keynote speaker. The event will also feature the return of former Vikes men’s basketball player Chris Hebb, who will also emcee for the Vikes on Sept. 29. The past seven Championship Breakfast events have been held in the iconic McKinnon Gymnasium with varsity athletes serving breakfast to alumni, university and community supporters. To date the event has raised just over $2.8 million dollars for student-athlete scholarships. And this year, UVic is set to once again match the first $200,000 raised at the event. Individual seats, tables of 10 and separate donations can be made up until the date of the event at govikesgo.com/breakfast.
