| 2008-06-22 - PeeWee Summer Camp – July 7th to August 26th |
Hello everyone, I am sending this email to 1st year and 2nd year Peewee aged kids (born in 1996 and 1997) who want to attend a summer hockey program at the Sackville Sports Stadium this July and August which is being put on by myself, John Carr and Joe Gray.
We have two hours of ice a week, Monday night at 6:00-7:00 and Tuesday night at 6:00-7:00. Our intention is to have practice time on Monday night concentrating on various drills and skills, and a game on Tuesday nights.
This cost of the 16 sessions is $160.00 per child. This hockey program is non-profit adventure, with the money paid by every player covering the cost of the ice. Any money that we may have left over will be used to buy the players sports drinks.
I would appreciate anyone who is interested emailing me right away as the first ice session is two weeks away. I believe the kids will really enjoy this program and they will learn from it.
If anyone has any further questions feel free to either email me at johncarr_30@hotmail.com or phone me at 865-3879.

After the player came out of their victory dance, only one question remains..How did Peckford's jersey come off?
During the Skills Competition Will Sheppard won fastest backwards skater, Deven Brann put everyone to shame for most accurate shot (5 out of 6) , and Brandon Cranidge the shoot-out winner.
