Which goalie holds the record for the most games played in a single season of the NHL? (Answer on page 7)
February 18-24, 2016 Volume 14 Issue 8 Rockies Hockey Wow! The Columbia Valley Rockies have had an incredible last half of the season. They have been one of the top teams and it has placed them well into the playoffs. As I write this, the Rockies are tied with the Fernie Ghostriders with only two games left in the regular season. The Rockies have a home-and-home series with Creston while Fernie faces two of the top teams in the league, Creston and Beaver Valley. If the Rockies can come out ahead then they will face Creston in the first playoff round rather than Kimberley, the top team in the KIJHL. Creston is here this Friday, February 19 at 7:30 pm. Get out and cheer loudly at what will hopefully be a preview of the first playoff round.
Free Golf? There are only a couple more weeks left of the ‘Where’s the Puck’ contest on page 8. Then the draw for the grand prize happens. Free golf at Radium, Fairmont, Windermere and Copper Point. It is an awesome prize and every entry all year will be in the draw.
Have you entered yet? It takes about 30 seconds to fill it out and maybe two minutes to drop it off. Pretty simple for a few hundred bucks worth of golf. Check out page 8.
Fishing Guide A wife was telling her neighbor about fishing with her husband the day before. “As always, I did everything wrong. I talked too loud, reeled in too slow, used the wrong bait and caught more fish than him.”
Fun Flats Curling The 7th Annual Canal Flats Fun Curling Bonspiel is coming up on March 18 to 20. This is an incredible weekend adventure as they convert the hockey arena into four sheets of curling ice. 40 teams gather to take battle on the ice. And many of the teams will have brand new curlers having never thrown a rock. They will have an amazing experience. The organizers put on a fabulous dinner and round up a good selection of silent auction items (funds to Canal Flats Community Association). Check their ad on page 3 for more information including how to get registered.
