Senators foster a love at Boys and Girls Club Alycia Douglass CORNWALL, Ontario - When it comes to the kids at Boys and Girls Club of Cornwall/SDG, one thing is certain - they’re crazy about hockey. On Tuesday, Jan. 24, the club received a donation of ball hockey equipment from the Street Senturions Enjeu initiative, which is shaping up to be a game-changer for everyone involved. The program is the local component of the NHL Street program and helps to supply local community centres with the equipment to run free youth ball hockey programs. Cornwall/SDG club Communications and Marketing Coordinator Trevor Smith says that the program was an easy sell. “When we tell them that an Ottawa Senator is coming to the clubhouse, people are generally pretty excited,” said Smith. “Especially since it’s Jesse, and he does such great things for our club.” To date, more than 35 sets of equipment have been donated to local centres in hopes of encouraging child participation in the game of hockey in Ottawa and surrounding areas. Sens-alumni, Jesse Winchester who hails from Cornwall, was there to present the equipment, and of course, try it out with some of the kids. “Hockey has always been a big part of my life since I was a little kid,” said Winchester. “More recently I’ve developed a relationship with the Boys and Girls Club, and the Sens asked me to take part in this event, which combines both passions.” The program has been in existence for seven

executive director, Jacquie Richards, the proposal was met with overwhelming gratitude. “They connected with us a couple months ago, and we worked with them,” said Richards. “Fast-forward to today, we are now able to receive some awesome new equipment which will service our eight locations as we begin our street hockey program.” “We’re fortunate because most of our staff has a background in hockey,” said Richards, noting
that the club’s in-house talent has been helpful in the steps leading up to the the program’s delivery. With hopes of incorporating ice hockey into next year’s programming, Lafranchise says that the street hockey program will act as a test. “We’re trying to bring more programs to Cornwall and help kids learn to love the game and see where it can take them,” said Lafranchise.

Goal scorers were Ty Megenhardt (1), Caleb Barnes (2) – including the game winning overtime goal. “Once again, I am extremely proud of the outcome and of the boys,” said coach Mike Marleau. “The games featured great passing and skating by the boys and this made all the difference. Last year, we played at the same tournament and did not make it to the medal round so this was even better for some of the team members who are returning players. I am extremely blessed to have a supportive coaching staff who also contributed to the success of our team that day.”

Claude McIntosh In the spring of 1941 a 12-year-old kid from the east end of Cornwall was hired as a caddy at the nine-hole Cornwall Golf and Country Club. Seven years later Roland “Joe” Mercier scraped together $22.50 and became an intermediate member. Senior level memberships sold for $50. He put away his golf clubs for good four years ago but shortly after he was made an honourary member. Counting his days as a caddy, that is 75-year, and counting, association with the club. How passionate was Joe about golf? “I even had it in my marriage contract that I could play golf three times a week - Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Never on Sundays, unless there was a tournament on a weekend,” laughed the 87-year-old. His best score was a 73 shot in the 1957 Cornwall Open. Working as a caddy had its perks. “I caddied for a doctor who gave my family a
30% discount,” he said. These were the days before OHIP. He was “fired” in his first year as a caddy but quickly rehired. “I lost a golf ball for a lady (from a prominent family) I was caddying for,” he said. In those days, the members were mostly professional folks. Not many “regular joes”. He regularly caddied for Mayor Aaron Horovitz who played every day at 4 p.m. Mercier credits his club association with landing his first job, at Canadian Cottons, in 1948. And when the company closed its Cornwall operations, his club connections landed him a job at Courtaulds where he climbed the ranks to assistant secretary-treasurer. He was, at the time, the highest ranking French Canadian in the company. These days, Mercier misses more than golf. Since 2008 he has been keeping a list of members he played with over the years. “How many do you think are on that list?” he asked. “It is up to 70. I knew them all.”
TICK OF THE SPORTS CLOCK This week in 1965 Cornwall Royals’ defenceman Ron Ward was named the Central Junior Hockey League’s most valuable player and most outstanding defenceman. He was named to the first all-star team. Teammate Jean Payette was named to the second allstar squad. ... St. Lawrence High School Saints downed Thousand Islands Secondary School of Brockville 61-48 in the first game of the EOSSA senior boys’ playoff round. Les Newman, 19, Gary Valiquette, 15, and Guy Poirier, 12, led the Saints scoring. ... Paper Machines defeated Finishing Room 5-1 in Howard Smith Inter-department Hockey League play. Rusty Conway and Adrien “Foxy” Fontaine had two apiece with Bruno Lamarche adding one. Stan Willis scored for Finishing Room. ... Eddie Kyer’s goal lifted Racine’s Kick-off Counter to a 1-0 victory over Hotel Cecile in Centre City Broomball League action. Leo Bedard had the shutout. ... Chicago centre Stan Makita was on his way to becoming the sixth player in NHL history to win back-to-back scoring titles. He led the league with 72 points on 23 goals
and 49 assists, five more than team-mate Bobby Hull. Makita also had 140 penalty minutes. ODDS AND ENDS The National Hockey League list of 100 greatest players had two glaring omissions with Cornwall ties - Dale Hawerchuk and Newsy Lalonde. Agreed that the former Cornwall Royals’ superstar was up against some of the game’s best, but selecting Adam Oates over Hawerchuk? You’ve got to be kidding. A strong argument can be made that Hawerchuk had a better career than Jacques Lemire, Red Kelly, Bryan Trottier, Peter Forsberg and Mark Messier. Hard to understand how a legend of Newsy Lalonde’s stripe was left off the list. .... How time flies. It was 40 years ago this month that the movie Slapshot made its debut. Former Ontario Hockey League coach/general manager Larry Maverty and NHL coach Bruce Boudreau played in the movie. “I was No. 7,” Boudreau recalled on a Toronto sports talk show this week. Both Maverty and Boudreau said they made more money for their five minute appearance in the movie than they did playing for their minor league clubs in a week.
Pink in the Rink Handout from Midget AA Typhoons CORNWALL, Ontario - The Cornwall girl’s Midget AA Typhoons will be supporting this year’s national anti-bullying campaign by wearing their Pink at the Rink on February 22nd. These girl’s understand the importance of letting everyone know that they choose to be Bully Free. Bullying is a problem at schools, workplaces, homes and over the Internet. Join us by raising awareness for Pink Shirt Day and for putting an end to bullying by wearing pink on Feb. 22, 2017. Each year thousands of people in Cornwall and S.D.&G. and many more across Canada show their support by donning pink on Pink Shirt Day.
Pink Shirt Day is now an internationally celebrated day, but its origins started right here in Canada. David Shepherd and Travis Price, both of Berwick, Nova Scotia, started the movement, which is now known as Pink Shirt Day, back in 2007. The pair noticed a grade nine student at their school being bullied because he had chosen to wear a pink shirt to the first day of school. The boys decided to take a stand against bullying by going to local stores and purchasing 50 pink shirts to wear. The next day, Travis, David and 48 of their friends wore their pink shirts to school as a unified stance against bullying. A Big Thanks to Lynn & Steve Tourangeau from Houde Mechanical Inc. for their Pink toque donation and support.

Nationals fans embrace new tradition with Warm-Up Cornwall Alycia Douglass alycia.douglass@tc.tc
CORNWALL, Ontario - Fans of the Cornwall Nationals came out in support of Warm-Up Cornwall this Sat. Jan. 28. The initiative seeks to make sure that nobody in Cornwall is left in the cold this winter. Fans were encouraged to bring a bag of winter gear (hats, scarves, mittens), throwing their donation onto the ice after the Nationals’ first goal. Scoring the Warm-Up Cornwall goal 4:38 into the first was Maxime Guyon. Fans littered the ice with bags of warm clothing, which will be dispersed throughout the city for people to take as they need. Kris McCarthy, who is the team’s Sales and
Marketing Director, says that the partnership came about fairly recently. “It’s funny, I actually had a splint for my finger when I met them in the park,” said McCarthey. “I couldn’t fit my hand in a glove or a mitt, so Chantal knitted me a nub to keep my hand warm.” Charity founder, Chantal Gilmour mentioned the initiative to McCarthey, who decided to promote it at one of the team’s upcoming games. With the vision of something similar to a teddy bear toss, they began planning and promoting the event. “I was really happy with the result,” said McCarthey.” “I think we had somewhere between 70 and 100 bags, so that’s another 200 articles of
clothing for the charity,” said Kris McCarthy. “It really helps people who are either homeless or don’t have access to warm clothing.” It’s a big win for the Nationals, too. McCarthy says that it’s important that the community knows they are Cornwall’s team, and they’re working hard at proving that through continued charitable endeavours. “Every team needs to be doing this in any professional league,” said McCarthy. There were 752 fans in attendance at Saturday’s game. Roughly 70-100 bags were thrown onto the ice at the Sat. Jan. 28 Nationals’ game in support of Warm-Up Cornwall. ©Jeremy Baxter/ Entelechy Media
