MORTON GROVE, Ill., March 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Chicagoland
hockey fans are in for a real treat this Saturday when 2010 Olympic
Gold Medalist and Chicago hockey star Brent Seabrook stops by the
Lincoln Park Starfruit Cafe to visit with fans, sign autographs and
show off his medal. The meet and greet runs 4-6 p.m. on Saturday,
March 6 at the Starfruit Cafe location on 2142 N. Halstead Street
in Lincoln Park. Everyone who stops in will receive a free sample
of frozen Kefir and can register to win a free pair of tickets to a
professional hockey game. "We are so excited that Brent has made us
one of his first stops on the heels of his Olympic debut," said
Julie Smolyansky, CEO and founder of Lifeway Foods, which owns the
Starfruit Cafe franchise brand. "He's definitely one of the hottest
young stars on the ice, and area hockey fans will get a chance to
congratulate him face-to-face on his Olympic success." Seabrook
represented his home country of Canada in the 2010 Vancouver Winter
Olympics. The 24-year-old defenseman has scored more than 370 goals
in his professional hockey career. Starfruit Cafe features a galaxy
of low fat smoothies, frozen treats and parfaits that are not only
delicious, but also exceptionally nutritious. Made from frozen
Lifeway Kefir, a creamy probiotic-rich milk smoothie, Starfruit
treats pack the health-boosting power of 10 live probiotic cultures
into a single serving - typical frozen yogurt contains just two or
three. Cafe customers can build their own frozen treats with
flavored frozen Kefir, piles of fresh fruit, granola, chocolate
chips, gummy bears and many other topics. "This is a great chance
for anyone who hasn't tried a Starfruit treat to come out for a
free sample and meet a local Olympian," Smolyansky said. For more
