BY GREGOR CAMPBELL Expositor Staff A 16 -year-old local hockey player, who only took up the sport three seasons ago, has made the Metro (Tier 2) Junior "A" Shelburne Wolves and become the first to win two-year private high school scholarship from The Hockey Training Institute Ltd. Wes Vick of Coleman Street in Seaforth enrolled in a three-week HTI hockey school at Shelburne this sum- mer, where he apparently caught some eyes. "One thing just led led to another." his father Joe sans. He made the Wolves two weekends ago, at a training camp of about 70 hopefuls (mostly from Toronto) at Etobicoke. He would have been going into Grade 11 at Seaforth District High School in a couple of weeks. Joe and his wife Liz, feel the intensive hockey/high school/junior program at Shelburne will keep their son focussed, if he has what it takes to further develop in the game. NO HANDICAP It is a wonder he's gotten this far, given his late start. He didn't start playing until he was 13 1/2 -years -old, three years ago, with the Annual Fox Run later on Sunday when it was 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and concerns were raised about it being held during church hours. Last year it rained all day and $2,420 was raised. The annual Terry Fox Run in Seaforth has raised $35,133.69 for cancer research since its inception in 1982, recreation director Marty•Bedard reported to Seaforth . Council last Tuesday.

He added money to be raised through bingo, "unknown at this time but hopefully to bring in approximately $1,500," will also go towards that day's expenses. Bedard termed this year's Canada Day events "a great success," noting firemen fed a record number for breakfast despite the rain, the heritage walk had more than 70 par- ticipants, and Child Find's mini -carnival was well attended.

Last win- ter he played for the local midgets. Very few hockey players who start so late, ever do much in the game. Ed Jovanovski of the Florida Panthers is one of the few who comes to mind. Hc didn't start playing until he was even older - 14. But such examples are few and far between. Joe says Wes was a late starter because he was very ill for a few years in his early teens, before the family moved from the Dublin arca to Seaforth. He is a forward, a rightwinger, right now about 5' 11" and 165 lbs. He has a younger brother - Luke. The Hockey Training Institute has been going for two years. Dan Cameron is head of hockey training at the school, and also head coach junior Wolves. Peter Miller is assistant HTI private school principal, teacher and general manager of the Shelburne juniors. "They have privately tutored and coached top NHL stars such as Eric Lindros, Brendan Shanahan, Scott Mellanby, Patrick Flatley, Mike Craig, Nathan LaFayette, Grant Marchall, Bobby Essensa, Jeff O'Neill, Brad Brown, Mike Ricci, Jeff Shevalier and more," an insti- tute press release notes.

Through wind, rain and waves, about 140 athletes challenged the sixth annual Triathlon at Goderich. New champions set one course record, for the women. Shawn Reeder from London was the men's champ in a time of 2:00.54. The new women's champion was Louise Powell of Brampton in a record time of 2:10.50. The old mark was set in 1995 by Sheri Fraser of Tecumseh. It was 2:13.12. Five athletes from Seaforth took part, with all finishing but four completing the three events in under three hours, in less than ideal conditions. The triathlon began with a 1 km swim, followed by a 45 km cycle (with five major climbs) thcn a 10 km run, starting with a 76 -stair climb. Lynn Devereaux of Seaforth said the water was too wavy for her. She joined the other four local triathletes when they came out of the water, then did the biking and run- ning. Faye Murray, Dr. Carolin Shepherd, Wendy Currie and Dr. Mark Woldnik were the four locals who did every- thing in under three hours. Some had been biking togeth- er, others were in training and all formed and the informal training circle since they heard about the event about three weeks ago, Devereaux said when contacted by rhe Huron Expositor just before press time.
