Dear Booster Club Members,

Where do I start. I can not begin to thank you all for your hard work and dedication you have shown and will continue to show to the players of your "Ottawa 67s". Your endless hours of work both at the rink and behind the scenes is commendable and greatly appreciated by myself and I am sure by all the parents. The boys are truly blessed to have your loyal support each and every year. I am most certain that the Ottawa 67s Booster Club is by far the best in the OHL!!

From the dinners, the gifts, acknowledgments, kind words, envelopes to the parents, and not to mention your smiling faces behind the tables at the Civic Centre, you make it a treat to come to the rink every game. You are a great welcoming committee and the organization is very lucky to have such a dedicated group around.
So, on a more personal note, on behave of Dave and I, we would like to thank-you for making Thomas' 5 years an experience he will never, ever forget and one that we, the Nesbitt's, will always treasure and hold dear to our hearts.
You are the best!!!!!

All our love,
Dave and Maria
"The Nesbitt's"

A very decent road effort from the 67's yesterday. Some late concerns in the dying minutes with Mississauga pressing us deep in our own zone but we managed to fend off the attack (no pun intended Owen Sound) and skate away with a 4-2 victory. Good on the 67's to take 2 of 3 so far against Missy and get the split here at the Hersey Centre. Ottawa totally dominated the first period taking it to the Majors and opened up a 3-1 first period lead. I thought the second frame was fairly even but the lone marker was posted by Ryan 'Brooklin' Martindale on a beautiful deflection on a shot from the point area. The 67's played very well defensively and didn't allow Missy to get their cycle game going down low. Mrazek was solid in goal and J.P. Anderson didn't really have any chance on any of the goals scored...Very nice to see the Ottawa Booster Club making an appearance at the game. My better half and I were quite surprised that they were actually sitting in our section behind the Majors net. Certainly added some much needed life into the arena so thanks guys! ! ..Nice to see the boys salute the Ottawa fans at game's end by raising their sticks in the air at center ice. Nice touch boys, nice touch!

As for yesterday in Mississauga, they placed the whole group on the other side of the arena from the Ottawa parents. Which really worked well because they were getting it (lots of noise and cheering) from 2 sides of the arena. I stopped and talked to a few of the ladies as I walked into the arena and told them they had to make even more noise to motivate the players for this game (Mississauga is always tough to play) and they did, you’d be proud and it worked!!!

I have to tell you , it was priceless seeing OUR BOYS at the end of the game at center ice raising their sticks in appreciation to all their fans, (the Booster Club) I wish a had a camera with me, I’ve never seen them do that away from home

Thanks for all the newspaper clippings, I always put together a memory book for Nicky each year and they help a lot.

Thanks Again

Have a GREAT Day

Thanks again for all you do and best wishes to another sucessful season.

Shane just called me and told me all about last nights dinner. He is so impressed and happy to be there
and the 67 Booster Club ranks high on his list of reasons. He has called home numerous times sine being
traded to Ottawa to tell us how unbelieveable the Booster Club is and what great people you all are.

Please pass along our sincere thanks and appreciation to all the members. As a parent it is extremely
comforting to know that good folks like you are there to support the boys on and off the ice.
You are all a tremendous group of people who deserve high praise for the things you do.

Thank you so very much!

Dan & Rita Prince

We just wanted to write to express our thanks for the lovely weekend we had in Kingston courtesy
of the Booster Club. We had a great weekend - the hotel & breakfast were great. They did all they
could to make our stay pleasant. The K-Rock suite and hospitality were also great.

Thanks to the Booster Club for making all this possible. Too bad you couldn't have arranged a win for us though.

We especially appreciate all that is done for our team players too.

Thank you again

Heather & Harold Nesbitt
