Hockey Nets to Neon Nights

The Evolution of the SO!SO! Hockey Tournament 

The Annual Shine Out! Shout Out! Hockey Tournament in support of Youth Mental Health & the Just be You peer support program is being paused in 2026 for a community event in early 2027..  

Since 2013, our incredible Shine Out! Shout Out! community has shown up and made some serious noise to support youth navigating mental health challenges.  For many years, our annual hockey tournament was the heart of that effort. It brought people together in such a special way—full of energy, generosity, community spirit, and more than a few unforgettable moments along the way. It helped us raise vital funds while shining a bright light on youth mental health.  

We are now evolving from our long-standing hockey tournament into an exciting new community event – one that gives us the opportunity to welcome even more people in and raise even greater awareness. 

Shine Out! Shout Out!  will be presenting Neon Nights, Don’t Stop Believin’ on February 27, 2027 at the Oakville Conference Centre.   A themed night out of full of fun, fantastic food, music, and dancing, all in support of a cause that touches so many close to us.  

 

To buy tickets for the event, please keep an eye on this page in early fall 2026.

Sponsorships, silent auction donations, and donations in kind are welcome for our event. Please email us at information@shineshout.com for details. 

For more information about our big event, please follow us on Instagram (@shineshout), Facebook (@ShineOutShoutOut)  and LinkedIn (Just Be You Peers) for the latest information and updates regarding the Just Be You program, mental health, and events in our community.
