                             Hockey  fans  in  Cornwall  and  SD&G                       Time for a lifestyle change.
                             haven’t  really  noticed  the  NHL
                             Lockout.
                                                                                                   Call and book your free

                             There’s a buzz around the area about the                        hour Fitness Consultation with
                             Cornwall Colts and what’s so far been

          an up and down season.  It’s safe to say the Colts will                        a certified Anytime Fitness trainer.

          be among the top four CCHL teams come March and
          will have a long playoff run.



          The River Kings have drawn between 1,500 and 2,000
          people to a pair of exhibition games putting on a really
          good  show.    The  talent,  which  was  detailed  in  last

          month’s column, has impressed local hockey fans with
          some beginning to follow the team to away games in
          Western Quebec.  The River Kings fan base will only

          grow  as  the  season  progresses  and  they  beginning
          winning  hockey  games.    Saturday  night’s  may  not
          have any NHL games for a while but Al Wagar’s club

          will help fill the void.


           Then there’s the OHL.  I’ve noticed local fans making
          the trek to either Kingston or Ottawa to get a glimpse

          of future NHLers.  It’s a good product if you don’t
          mind travelling a couple of hours.



           And of course there’s always plenty of good local talent
          on display at Benson Centre.  The Typhoons (Cornwall
          Girls) have hosted their first tournament with another                                  Get in a workout.

          to come in November.  Seaway Valley is also well into
          tournament  season  having  hosted  a  successful  one                      Get on with your life.
          while Cornwall Minor Hockey continues to showcase

          future talent with its teams.


          All that hockey to watch and I haven’t even brought
          up the Ontario Hockey Academy.  The Cornwall based

          hockey program has hosted and had success against
          teams  from  Europe  and  the  United  States  and  will

          continue to do so throughout the season, once again at
          Benson Centre.


          No NHL? No problem.  That’s something the league                                           1360 Second St. E.,

          and the player’s association should think about because
