A very special thanks to all the companies who helped last year by contributing to the amazing weekend.

Capital Office donated a nice chair to the Auction and Jestek Electric also donated some awesome items to the Auction. A BBQ from an annonymous donor. This tournament could not happen for all those in the community who help. I also want to say thank you to Simply Sparkling who donated 3 trophies for the MVP of the playoffs.

2011 TOURNAMENT IS IN MEMORY OF DICK CORDICK
Dick passed away this past January after a lengthy fight with cancer. After retiring from the Air Force he worked at his favorite hobby, hockey, for 25 years. For a short time working with Hockey Ontario, the ODHA and then he enjoyed many years with the Canadian Adult Recreational Hockey Association. During his hockey years he was a member of the CAHA Rules Committee and an active member in the forming of the National Referee Certification Program. Dick was proud of his induction to the CJHL, and CARHA Halls of Fame as a Builder. He enjoyed many fond memories of coaching minor hockey and refereeing at all levels. Most of all Dick loved watching his son Tim who wore #5 thoughout his hockey career. Dick and Marion travelled many miles to watch him play. Sadly Tim passed away, succumbing to brain cancer in September 2007 at 42 years of age.
Dick will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

| Our team wanted to thank you for the wonderful Hockey Fights Cancer tournament. All of our players, family and friends had a terrific time. We were especially pleased how organized and helpful you and your staff were in all aspects of this terrific event. The games ran smoothly and on-time, the officiating was exceptional and the gift bags and silent auction was a nice touch. We also had loads of fun at St. Louis Bar and Grill. The food and entertainment was fantastic!!! We will definitely be back next year. Thanks again. |

Hockey Fights Cancer 2009 was a great accomplishment. The hockey games were very exciting and the incredible volunteers were very committed thoughout the weekend. The sponsors were an important part of the funds that were raised. We are very proud of Catherine, Jeff, Nick and Taylor. Allan and I spent the weekend at the tournament and met some fabulous people who took time out of their busy schedules to help Catherine run the tournament. We look forward to 2010 for the tournament to grow. Allan and Mary Kate Duff (Mom and Dad)
