Good Evening,
We would truly like to thank you for the amazing package of articles which you sent to us , here in Toronto.
All the contributions the Booster Club does to make the boys feel welcome is very heartfelt to the parents.
I look forward to purchasing a jersey with Liam's name on it as well as some window stickers for our vehicles.
Thanks again,
Cynthia and Peter
The Herbsts
Thanks so much!! We are sooo very excited especially for Sean!
We miss all of you too!! Thanks for everything! Sean's time in Ottawa was amazing! We all loved it! Great people, great place and great teammates for Sean. Thanks again.
Take care - Cathy and John Monahan
Hi, Booster Club Executives:
Just a note of thanks to each of you for your stalwart and enthusiastic devotion to the team.
It has been a tough year in many ways with seeing so many of the young men, whom we had watch mature, traded away to other teams. That was bittersweet and I, for one, hope they know they are really still 67's in our hearts! All the best to each of them and many thanks for letting us share the ride as far as we could.
The travel out to Kanata, for some, has meant an increase in expense that is not easily afforded. But that does not mean they have abandoned their "boys". Many are eagerly awaiting the return to Lansdowne and the rekindling of great friendships.
The erratic schedule (i.e. week-nights that are not junior hockey nights) has also had an impact, in my opinion..... hey, but who asked for my opinion! :-D
We will tough it through another year together as we wait for our new "old home" to open. We will cheer loudly and proudly as we watch all the new guys hone their skills; and, we will remember the boys who grew to manhood sporting the red-white-and black of our OTTAWA 67's.
Throughout all of the above and even some areas not touched upon, the Booster Club has remained loyal and, as I stated at the beginning, super supportive of the young men selected to play hockey for our beloved 67's. You are to be commended and thanked, which I am now doing, from the bottom of my heart.
Enjoy your summer! See you next season. LET'S GO, 67'S !!!!!!

First... a belated thank you to the Booster Club for sending out the email about the postponed friday night game a few weeks ago. It saved me a long cold drive and without your email I was planning to go.

Just wanted to commend the Booster club for a fun, well organized
event - Raffi and I had a great time.
If I may offer some advice - I think it would be a shame if the Booster
club were to shut down because of the move to SBP. It is a challenge,
geographically, for many of us to make the move - in fact, I may reduce
my commitment from full-season to Friday night package. But, as will
be the case for the team, I think this is an opportunity to reach out
to a new market and clientele - west-enders who are hockey fans. At
the end of the day, this move could help to increase the profile of
the 67's in the city - and could likewise be a boost to the Booster
club membership (probably more so in year 2, than year 1).
Again, as volunteers, the Booster organizing committee does a fantastic
job of supporting the team - both the fans and 67's club would welcome
that continued support at SBP.
Regards,
David Adjeleian

Dear Group Organizer,
I hope you are enjoying the London Knights season so far! I wish to personally thank you for all your hard work and effort in organizing and promoting group tickets to our regular season home game last Saturday, March 3rd.
I can relate to the amount of work and the various tasks that an organizer is subject too. For that reason, I greatly appreciate your dedication, passion, and commitment to the London Knights Hockey Club.
I hope your group enjoyed the experience at the game. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me, as I will be more than happy to assist you. I look forward to working with you in the future. Thanks again and have a great day!
Sincerely,

I just wanted to say thank you to all involved in putting together
one excellent road trip. There is not a negative thing that could be
said. "Duke" was amazing, the accommodation was great, and
the games were just the best. Thanks to all. Alana had a ball and everyone
on the bus were so nice and helpful to her. Can't wait for the next
67's road trip.

We had a great and fun trip with the other 67's fans on the bus
it was the best ever and also Cathy and Christine did a great job and
was very organized; The bus driver Duke was very nice and helpful and
the best.
The holtel was great.
Thank you of thinking of us when the couple cancelled.
See you at the game.

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!
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, Ive 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

We have already "spread" the word of how generous and supportive
the Booster Club is to the boys----which is so great, especially for
1st year kids.
One of the 1st things we told the "Fieldings" was "join
the Booster Club, and i am sure our Tyler told their Taylor the same
thing
Thanks again for all you do and best wishes to another sucessful season.
Sincerely, Kelly, Tom and Tyler Graovac.

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
Thanks for all you do.
The boys are very lucky to have such a strong group behind them. And
they know it.
You are the best!
See you this week-end,
Maria Nesbitt
Once again your support has been fantastic this year!! We'd like
to thank you and the entire
booster club for all of the fantastic support you've provided the players.
They really are very fortunate
to have such a SUPER booster club behind them!
I'll stop by tonight to pick up the package.
Thanks again!
Rita, Steve and Ryan
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
