PANCAKE BREAKFASTS
The Adam Harlow Fellowship Fund held four fundraiser breakfasts last
month at the North Grenville Municipal Centre. Our greatest thanks go
to Bill Osborne Buick GMC for the sponsorship again this year. Thanks
also to the Bulk Barn for their donations, which collectively helped to
raise enought profit to sponsor at least 3 children in the up-coming
2010-2011 hockey year.
Our appreciation as well to the Atom C Team A Wolverines from Nepean,
who graciously donated $100.00 to the Fund, even though the Fund does
not benefit their area. Also thanks to Linda Cheff for her generous
donation of $100.00.
A very warm and heartfelt thanks to all who helped make these events
the successes that they were. And of course the volunteers... without
your commitment and hard work, we could never achieve these
accomplishments.

Adam Harlow died tragically
on March 24, 2002 at the tender age of ten.
He began playing hockey in
1999 for the Kemptville Panthers and, like many children, suffered from
low self esteem. In 2001, a very noticeable improvement came
over him
when he was chosen as his team's only goalie. This change was directly
attributed to the camaraderie and team spirit provided by his team
mates and the game of hockey, which became his greatest passion in life.
In 1999 both Adam and his
best friend decided to join the
Kemptville District Minor Hockey
League to play on the same
team. After registration, Adam called his buddy and was
very discouraged to hear that his friend's family could not afford the
high registration fees and therefore could not play. A very touching
moment occurred when Adam innocently
turned to
his mother and asked if she could pay his friend's
registration fees, too.
As a tribute, the
"Adam Harlow Fellowship Fund" was created to help
give Kemptville District children who would not otherwise be
able to play hockey, the opportunity to learn and continue to
enjoy the sport by financing their hockey registration fees.
Donations are welcome in
supporting this very worthy cause.

Adam Harlow
Trophy
The Ottawa
International Hockey Festival,
more commonly known as the Bell Capital Cup, takes place in arenas
throughout the Ottawa area each year in late December to early January.
It began in 1999
and showcases the
talents of Atom and PeeWee aged players around the world.
Through time the tournament has grown to become the largest of its kind
in the
world today.
In addition to the regularly
scheduled games there is a Skills Competition and an All
Star Game for all competition levels.
The
All Star Games award three stars per game with trophies for:
- best
defenceman
- best forward
- best goalie
It
is a great honour that this prodigious tournament has chosen to
name the best goalie award after Adam, and called it the
“Adam Harlow
Trophy”.
