Annual Sturgeon Point Shinny

by

Once again, it is that time of year where hockey players of all shapes and sizes, come together to strap on the skates, tape the sticks, and skate like the wind.

For those of you who haven’t participated before, we use 3/4’s of the rink for shinny and 1/4 for recreational skaters, little ones and UN observers. We play 5 minute periods split between younger skaters (roughly 12 and under) and the rest of the motley crew. This keep the little ones out of harms way and the old guys get a break every five minutes to catch their breath.

Here are the details, please share them with anyone you think that might be interested in joining in the fun and games.

The times are as follows:

Tuesday Dec 28: 2-4 PM
Wednesday Dec 29:  2:30-4:30 PM
Thursday Dec 30: 3-5 PM.

Located at the Fenelon Falls Arena.

This a great deal, just $20 for families $10 for singles / day.

Having seen the pace of play in years gone by, I recommend the use helmets for one and all. Trust me you won’t be the only one out there sporting protection.

See you on the ice.

Special thanks goes out to Larry Thomas who has been instrumental in the organization of this fun event each year.
