The Wingham Advance-Times, 1984-10-24, Page 11Guide pathways 3 inor hockey school proves very popular A hockey school held this fall by the Wingham Minor Hockey Association has proven so popular that organizersalready are planning to repeat and perhaps expand it next year. A total of 102 boys aged six' to 16 years took part in the school, including 35 from surrounding areas such as Lucknow, Belmore, Teeswaz ter, Belgrave, Brussels and even Listowel. They spent seven days working under the direction of head ice instructors Doug Neil and Larry Lane and instructors Ben Blackwell, John Fryfogle, John Hen- derson, Bill Brown and Wayne Brown. Group lead$., ers were Paul Robinson, Jamie Robinson, Jon. Bate-' son, Tim Brown and Jason Goodall. Each day the players spent one and a half hours on the ice in groups of about 35, working on skills, power skating and how to perform in different game situations. The program wrapped up with a game and lunch last Sunday. Co-ordinator Al Harrison explained this school was put together over the summer New faces in Zine -up A core of holdovers from last season's highly success- ful team will be joined by an equal number of new faces when the Wingham Royals take to the ice this Friday night to open. the 1984-85 hockey season against Ripley, their old nemesis. Goaltender Ron Smith will continue to anchor the Royals between the pipes, with help this year from Brian O'Connell, formerly with the St. Marys In- termediates. , On defence, however, only Tom Irwin, the Pride of Belgrave, remains from last year's 'corps. He will be joined by a group of Wing - ham Ironmen graduates in Pete Goodall, Ken Fitzger- ald and Len Stamper, as well as Ken Higgins from the Brussels Juniors. On the forward lines, the Royals will have a large group of familiar faces, with Dave Stephenson, Jay MacLaurin, Dave Golley, Sandy Fitzgerald, Bob Alton, Dave Burns, Randy Clarke and Brent Day all returning o • THE SQUARE to terrorize opposing net - minders. They will be joined by Mark Foxton from the Ironmen, Brian TenPas and Ken Cousins from the Brussels Juniors and' Jim Keller who formerly played industrial league hockey. The Royals this year will be playing in an expanded Intermediate league against such long-time rivals as Teeswater and Lucknow as well as Ripley, Exeter, Monkton, St. Clements, Drayton and Woodford,. Home games will continue o be Friday nights starting at 8:30. Bridge club Yvonne McPherson and Harley Crawford took first place in ,.last Thursday evening's duplicate bridge play: Mary Lloyd and Bert Mathers were second, Norma Parker and Mary Mathers, third, and Mary Caslick and Kay Forgie were fourth. after the minor hockey association had decided it could not afford to sponsor a school run by a former professional hockey player. Pat Stapleton, who runs the FIA hockey school, was brought in for a demon- stration to local coaches, Mr. Harrison reported, but he wanted $15,000 and a guaranteed enrolment of at least 160 boys, so the association said "no, thanks". - That resulted in a letter to parents containing a proposal for a Wingham hockey 'school under the direction of Mr. Neil and Mr. Lane, both of whom have a Level 5 national coaching certification and have taught for a number of years at various summer hockey schools. Mr. Neil and Mr. Lane set ,up the entire program and to date he has received nothing but positive comments from the bbys and their parents, Mr. Harrison reported. At the end of the program he sent home anevaluation form asking for specific comments and- suggestions on the school. "These kids get quite a jump on others (who did not attend)," Mr. Harrison noted. "They already have 10 and a half hours of ice time." Minor hockey paid the operating expenses for the school collecting registration fees from the boys, and it hopes to just break even, he added. As a result this school cost ' only about $4,000 to operate compared to $15,000 for the earlier proposal. He said the association is considering marketing the school to surrounding associations next year. • • • WED.-THURS./LAST 2 DAYS FOR • • • • WITH NICK NOLTE •' ADULT ACCOMPANIMENT • 000111101a 524.7111 •. • • • • • 1 • • REMEMBER TUESDAYS • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • g xtiCZ 4 ti • 24 HOUR MOVIE LINE 524-7811 i ••••••••••••••••••••• ••••e••••••••••eee'•• STARTING FRIDAY October 26 to November 1 Fri.Sat. 7 &9 pym.

Twenty-seven local girls have joined or returned to the Wingham company to 'get the answers this year. Since September, the girls have learned how to get muddy, catch bugs, sew, stalk silently through tin cans, newspapers and plastic, pitch tents (that means • put them up, not throw them away!), cook in cardboard boxes and over campfires. The Guides had two very strange hikers wander through their meeting one night. One hiker was very well prepared, but the other: a disaster. Now they know the right way to prepare for a hike and how to use a rain poncho as an emergency tent. Volunteers Bill Farnell,, Carol Reid, Marty Cretier, Mrs. Carol Farnell, Sandi and Ian Deslauriers and the Royal Homes staff have earned and deserve grateful thanks for their help.
