The Central Ontarlo Wolves AAA Major Novices were the class of the prestigious Wayne Gretzky International Minor Hockey Tournament held December 27-29, 1996 in Brantford. The tournament fea- tured teams from Ontario, Chicago and Cleveland. Orono resident and goaltender Kyle Johnston was a standout in this tournament, picking up MVP honours in the semi-final contest and allowing but 2 goals over 5 games. Orono residents Mark Kelly, Justin Caruana and Matt Mitchell, who consti- tute 50% of the team's defence corps, were also outstanding throughout the tournament. Central opened the tourna- ment strongly with a 5-0 deci- sion over the host Brantford Bandits. Matt Gray of Omemee was voted MVP of the game. This was followed by a second 5 - 0 win over Guelph, in which Chad Dunlop earned MVP hon- ours. The boys then faced off against Cambridge for 1 st place in their division and skated to a 4 - 2 victory, with Captain Dustin Belton chosen as MVP. THis set up a semi-final engage- ment with Cambridge, who qualified as a wildcard, and this time the Wolves prevailed by a 4 - 1 score. The finals featured our Wolves against the London Rebels, who had tied the Wolves in a previous tournament but came up short this time around. The final score was 3 - 1 for the Wolves. Dustin Belton was voted tournament MVP. Walter Gretzky, father of Wayne, presented the champi- onship trophy to captains Dustin Belton, Matt Mitchell, Chad Dunlop and Matt Gray, along with medallions to all of the boys. He also took the time to have his picture taken with each boy, as well as the whole team. For the coaching staff of Bill Dunlop, Paul Koot and Jeff Mitchell it was an exciting and gratifying win for the team, which is now beginning to ele- vate its level of play in prepara- tion for -the Ontario Championships, which the team will host at the end of the season. Congratulations boys on a fine tean effort! On a sad note, defenceman Andrew Fracz, of Courtice, missed part of the tournament due to the passing of his grand- father on Christmas Day. The team wishes to express its heartfelt condolences to Ed Fracz and his family. Andrew came back to play a fine game in the finals.

In the artist's words, images are "manipulat- ed into poetic narratives that investigate social issues and explore the psyche of our con- temporary society. "One might compare them to Surrrealists on a picnic, or pieces of a dream. Clint and his brother Scott have been frequent exhibitors in group shows at the centre, and were also featured in Mapping the (Un)Familiar, writ- ten by Pam Patterson and Margaret Rodgers, and pub- lished by the Visual Arts Centre. Scott will also be exhibiting his work at the cen- tre in a solo show in February. Thought-provoking and entertaining, the artistic com- munity is important to the development of regional identi- ty. Artists are encouraged by those who visit exhibitions and otherwise support their endeav- ours. Therefore, the public is urged to visit the Visual Arts Centre at the opening or during regular gallery hours to not only enjoy the exhibition but also lend a voice of acknowledge- ment to the artist. Admission is free. Stockwell knocked in a well needed goal assist to #44 Mike Whalen and our last goal #66 Robert Kay unassisted. We were coming back with lots of chances but time ran out. #29 Luke Green had lots of tough shots making lots of saves. Good game Luke! Our final season game is Friday January 10 in Orono against Orono.
