Hockey in the Rain!


momstown Barrie was the proud Children's Area sponsor for the 1st Boston Pizza Street Hockey Classic for Cancer Research.

The weather looked grim right from the start of the morning and sure enough, just as registration for the players was in full force the skies opened up and the rain poured down.

The wet weather didn't dampen the spirits of the players though. They suited up in their team t-shirts, strapped on their gear, grabbed their sticks and played happily in the rain!

The round robin tournament was played through the day by men and women all in support of cancer research.

The weather cleared up for a good part of the afternoon and everyone that came out was having a good time.


momstown had a fishing pond for the kiddies to stop at and do some fishing for creatures. The rain held off long enough for a bunch of kiddies to enjoy some fishing and lollipops with us.

The day ended with another down pour, a performance by Please and Thanks and an after party in Boston Pizza.

Rain and all, it was a great day for a great cause! Looking forward to next year!
