Packed arena makes Vick
benefit hockey game success

Hundreds of people filled
the Seaforth arena on
Saturday evening, Dec. 20,
to show their support for
Vick and his family by
attending the Benefit
Hockey Game.
"I never thought there
would be so many people
here. The arena is packed,
it's just unbelievable," said
Vick. "I never realized I had
so many friends."
Saturday's game was
between the former
instructors at the Dave
McLlwain Hockey School
(where he taught for six
years) and local talent
including NCAA, CIAU,
OHL, Junior and Sr. A
players, organized by
Graham and Derek Nesbitt.
Vick is pursuing a five-
year goal to walk again after
a dirt bike accident left the
22 -year-old Seaforth man
paralyzed from the waist
down last July.
This January, Vick is
entering a four-week study
at McMaster University
where his legs will be
stimulated by electrodes for
spinal cord research. He's
also planning to begin
attending spinal cord
research conferences,
including one in Las Vegas
next year with his London
specialist.
Although, prior to the start
of the benefit game, Vick
said "I hope they tie," the
score was close as the black
team defeated the the white
team 7-6.
"It's not really who wins
or loses anyways, it's all just
for fun," said Vick.
All proceeds from the
event went towards Vick
and his family but no total
of funds raised at the benefit
game has been finalized.
