FROG JOG is this weekend!!!

by
The 2st Annual Sturgeon Point FROG JOG, will be held on August 10, at 9:00am.
This is a 5 km FUN Run/Walk and 1 km kid’s run/walk around the village.
We will start off with the 1km route first for the kids, followed by the 5K race about 9:20am for those who may want to do both. This event will be a great opportunity to get together for a tour around the Point. 

The FROG JOG will start and finish at the Park.
There will be finishers’ ribbons and a prize draw at the finish line afterwards, and refreshments and snacks will be provided. This event is open to everyone, and participants can complete the course at their own pace.

Advanced registration is not required, donations for the local food bank on race day would also be appreciated.

The organization of this event is being spearheaded by Rosemary Stochel. She is looking for volunteers to act as race marshals, and to help out with the water station and distribute finish line refreshments. Please email rosemarystochel (at) hotmail (dot) com if you can help out at the event.

The Good Ol Hockey Game…..

by

The good old hockey game!
Its the best game you can name!

It is that time of year to sharpen your blades, tape your sticks and pray for soft landings, the days and times for our annual shinny and skating have been booked!

Here are the dates, times, & places:

Friday, Dec 28: 4-6 PM – Fenelon Falls Arena (the new one!), 27 Veterans Way
Saturday, Dec 29:  2-4 PM – Fenelon Falls Arena, 27 Veterans Way
Sunday, Dec 30: 11AM-1 PM – Bobcaygeon Arena, 51 Mansfield Dr.

For those of you who haven’t participated before, we use 2/3′s of the rink for shinny and 1/3 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.

Please share them with anyone you think that might be interested in joining in the fun and games.

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

Having seen the pace of play in years gone by, we 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.
