Last night, NHLers Rick Smith, Chris Phillips, Doug Jarvis, Fred O’Donnell, Ron Tugnutt and Rob Murphy joined a large crowd at the Cove, in support of raising money for the arena.  They spent time talking to those who attended the event and signing autographs.  Right here!  In our Village!

Rick Smith, a former Bruins player, has truly become a Friend of the Arena.  He has helped the Village and FOTA out in many ways and was the lead organizer for getting the NHLers here last night.  Thank you Rick!

Once again, hats off to the backbone of our community – the volunteers.  FOTA’s Mark Herlehy, Bob Scott, Marty Hawkins and Councillor Frank Huth stay focussed on   improving the quality and experience of everyone who uses the arena.

And, for anyone with a hammer and paint brush, you can join the work bee’s at the arena this summer.  They meet every Tuesday night from 6:00 – 10:00 for the next 8 weeks.  All hands on deck!
