Did you know there has been a book written about the Trent Valley Hockey league that started in the late 1800s and ran up until 1955? Stewart Richardson and Dave Barry have co-authored a book called Ice and Thunder. It has the history of the league and many stories of Marmora in the book. After 1955 the league became know as a Senior or Intermediate C or D hockey league that Marmora still iced a team to play in.

Marmora and Lake is hosting a Senior hockey game out of players from the league today. The game will be at 6:00 pm on February 29, 2020. There will be three 15 minute stop time periods with intermission. The Centre Hastings Grizzlies hockey will do a Cubs beginner skating showcase 1st intermission and a shoot to win after the second period.

We are inviting older players and participants of the league along with the book authors to the banquet hall for a 4:30 pm meet and greet. The hall and bar facilities will be open at 5:30 to the public.

The proceeds are going part into youth skating programs and also the upgrading of the Greg Terrion sign at the front of the arena that has slightly faded.

ADMISSION: $2 OR DONATION AT THE DOOR.

TIMELINE:

  • 4:30 PM participant and authors meet and greet in the Community Centre (upstairs at the arena)

  • 5:30 PM Community Centre and Arena is open to public. Bar facilities will be open.

  • 6:30 PM Game time!

Were hoping the event is publicly attended. It will be a fun way to learn about Marmora's hockey history.
