RAIDERS OPEN UP THIS SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 11TH

The Georgetown Raiders open up the season at home this Saturday Night at 7.30pm at Moldmaster Sportsplex against the Newmarket Hurricanes sporting many new faces, and we would like to take time out to congratulate our Trainer Andrew Groombridge for being inducted into the Sarnia Lambton Sports Hall Of Fame over the Summer months.

ABOUT THE HURRICANES

On June 28, 2008 the Newmarket Hurricanes lost a key part of their team. Player KJ Ramolla died as a passenger in a single car rollover. KJ was 5th for scoring during the 2007-2008 season and was set to return for the 2008-2009 season. The driver of the car, Ryan Burkholder, former captain of the Hurricanes survived the crash with minor injuries.

Newmarket hosted the 2008 Dudley Hewitt Cup, losing to the OJHL Champion Oakville Blades in the Final.

A 68-year-old Florida man was arrested after having a loud argument with his bicycle outside a gas station this week, police say.

Richard Bialon was arrested Tuesday afternoon in Stuart, Fla. The arresting officer saw Bialon “yelling at his bicycle” in the parking lot of a Mobil gas station, according to an arrest affidavit.

“Customers were coming to the Mobil and were very disturbed as to the yelling and obscene argument the defendant was having with his bicycle,” the affidavit alleges.

Bialon was arrested and charged with disorderly intoxication, a misdemeanour.

As you can see from the above picture the two still “aren’t talking”!

WOODSY THE D-MOOS SPORTS HOUND

The Halton Hills Bulldogs have gotten off to a wonderful start at the Founders Cup of Lacrosse going 5-0 in the round robin tournament and we could be National Champions a few days from now.


Competition for National Championship in the Junior “B” classification was initiated by the Canadian Lacrosse Association in September, 1964. A silver cup donated by Castrol Oils limited served as the winner’s trophy (1964 – 1971) but was retired to the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame, New Westminster, B.C. in 1972.
In 1972, the C.L.A. inaugurated the Founder’s Trophy (1972 – Present) as emblematic of the Junior “B” Championship of Canada. this beautiful handcrafted unique trophy commemorates the founders of organized Lacrosse, particularly the contributions of “The Father of Organized Lacrosse”, Dr. George W. Beers of Montreal, Quebec who wrote the first rulebook and in 1867 was instrumental in organizing the National Lacrosse Association, predecessor to the Canadian Lacrosse Association

Charles Edward Anderson “Chuck” Berry (born October 18, 1926) is an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter, and one of the pioneers of rock and roll music. With songs such as “Maybellene” (1955), “Roll Over Beethoven” (1956), “Rock and Roll Music” (1957) and “Johnny B. Goode” (1958), Chuck Berry refined and developed rhythm and blues into the major elements that made rock and roll distinctive, with lyrics focusing on teen life and consumerism and utilizing guitar solos and showmanship that would be a major influence on subsequent rock music.
