Minor Hockey Week
While Minor Hockey Week in Canada officially gets
underway this Saturday, the Seaforth Minor Hockey Assoc-
iation will not celebrate the event until two weeks later,
Saturday, February 7th when plans have been set for a
Minor Hockey Day in Seaforth,
Under the organization and sponsorship of the Minor
Hockey Association executive, which includes Don Wood,
President; Tom Phillips, Secretary-Treasurer and Bill
Henderson, Vice-President, the event promises to be one
of the best yet.
Rounding out a full days activities will be a complete
program of hockey games involving all of the towns minor
hockey teams.
The first action-gets underway at 8:00 a,m. when the.
Legion sponsored Saturday morning house league hockey
teams will compete. Commencing at 2:00 p,m. the regular
minor hockey teams will entertain, competing against tear-lia r
from area municipalities and this program will continue
until 10 p.m.
A highlight of the afternoon program will be a girls'
exhibition hockey game featuring a Seaforth entry and a
team from a neighboring community.
Tickets for Minor Hockey Day will go on 'sale this
week end and boys from our local minor system will be
soliciting the support of area residents. The price of the
tickets are $1.00.. and are good for adm'ssion- to the entire
day's events.
Minor. Hockey Day 'is truly a worthwhile project and
• aieservea your support.
The following' editorial comment offered by the C.A.
HA. serves to illustrate the benefits received by Minor
Hockey Day.
The local minor hockey association is composed of
enthusiastic, hard-working volunteers whose efforts on be-
half of local youngsters cannot be measured in hours Or
dollars, They make it possible:. for hundreds of 'our youngsters
to take, part Vi'Canada's national sport.
More -than that, they Contricpute towards the develop-
ment not only of stronger bodies, but of healthier minds and
better citizens. They -keep the youngsters off the streets and
engaged in healthy, supervised sport. • We do agree with the
slogan 'To keep a boy out Of hot water - put him on ic'. Our
municipality has provided the ace, our volunteers 'do the
work toaput •him on ice',
• While we pause long enough to pay. tribdte to our,
minor .hoCkey -Wbrkeraa'sirailar' recognition[ Of 'the thousands
of minor hockey volunteers in Canada is taking .place right
across the country; every municipality in Canada is doing
the same thing during Minor Hockeir•Week.
Minor Hockey Week in Canada is one of several
worthwhile projects -of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Assoc-
iation, and as a result of .the C.A.H.A,'s promotion, volun-.
teer workers across the country are. being told their. work is ,
appreciated. Some are being made the recipients of testim-
onial 'scrolls and plaques, but all are included in the genera]
paeans of praise heard across the nation this big week of '
minor hockey.
Although the recognition of the volunteer organizers,
coaches, managers, car drivers and fund-raisers is one
of the most important objectives of Minor Hockey Week, it
is not the only one. Another_ is to 'focus attention on minor
hockey'. •
Minor' hockey is an important part of our community
life,- It is an integral part of the fabric of our community
and a major part of the sporting activities of our munici-
pality. It Is :beneficial to the youngsters, •and, because it is,
it is beneficial to the whole community. In addition to building
Stronger bodies, minor hockey contributes to the development
of better citizens while it is keeping them occupied la a
worthwhile endeavour - right at an age when many of them
might easily be engaged in pursuits much less acceptable
to society.
The statistics issued by the C.A,11.A. indicate yet
another reason for supporting minor hockey. The, C,A.H.A.
minor hockey committee points out that minor hockey is an
activity that not only works^ for the youngsters, be' provides
weft( for many adults and in addition turns back to the anad-
Jan economy more than five 'million dollars every' year.
The costs. of providing sweaters, skates; and other
'equipment (much safety equipment is now compulsory), the
cost of ice rentals, transportation, injury insurance, are
items that soon run "up into many dollars per player and
hundreds of dollars per team, Considering there are more
than twelve thousand minor hockey team s in Canada, it la
not difficult a tea visualize millions of dollars being' spent to
keep the operation going. So it is we realize everyone bene-
fits from minor 'hockey truly" it is good for the community.'
'The proceeds .fro Seaforth's Minor Hockey Day will
go towards the cost of erating and maintaining our local
teams.

The snowmobilers out towards the Brucefield area
had a run on Sunday night, after the ride they had a cook-
out in Ken Carnochan's bush, rumor has it that they even
had sonie• rabbit stew... apparently they had a real good
time.
Some of the local snowmobilers attended the Stratford
Winter Carnival on Sunday afternoon and were successful
in bringing home '$95.00 worth of prize money from the
races, not, bad for an afternoons work.
It looks" like this is it. The Sealorta Winter Carnival
is coming up this Friday, Saturday and Sunday'. The various
committees are working very hard and arrangements are
almost complete for the "Biggest Winter Carnival" to hit
Seafertlt. The local merchants have been most 'generous
with help and donations and the Carnival should prove to
' be a real success. This year the Optimists are providing
a heated entertainment centre in the Roundhouse complete
with music by a live band on Sunday afternoon.
All local and area snowmobilers should plan to come
to the" Seaforth Carnival by machine in order to have al
chance at finding one of the trail prizes which :will be set
out on the trails around Seaforth on Friday. These four
prizes will be marked with a •flag and will be placed' be-
side the trails in abOut a 2 1/2. mile radius of Seaforth. See you at the -parade Friday night!
