O Our province has a rich history in sports, featuring individuals and teams who have made significant contributions to the culture and heritage of Nova Scotia. I believe it’s important to teach the next generation of athletes about their predecessors so that they can continue the honoured tradition of sportsmanship and competition. The Future Hall of Famers education campaign is a fantastic program that has achieved great success with students across Nova Scotia. By sharing the true life stories of our sports heroes, the program demonstrates that initial failures are learning experiences and that to accomplish their dreams, they have to stay the course. Students can also learn more about our sports heritage at the Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame, which features a vast collection of sports memorabilia and fun facts for everyone to enjoy. I encourage everyone to check it out! Sincerely, Darrell Dexter Premier of Nova Scotia Chairman’s Message n behalf of the Board Directors, I wish to welcome and congratulate this year’s Inductees to The Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame. You are now members of a sports hall that takes Opride in educating, entertaining and inspiring others to reach their dreams. 2011 has been an exciting year. The Induction Awards Ceremonies caps off another great year of attendance with 80,000 plus visitors to the Hall. The Future Hall of Famers education program has been expanded to include a full-time education coordinator who works with existing and future Hall of Famers to share life stories, motivate and inspire youth across Nova Scotia. NSSHF has completed another successful year, developing a five-year strategic plan, updating by-laws and strengthening the collection management program. We are in the process of cataloguing and digitizing the entire collection of over 7,000 items to adhere to national museum standards and to have the collection available to the public online. Preserving those great stories and achievements of our sport heroes has remained the priority of NSSHF. We couldn’t do it without the generous support of our friends of the Hall, corporate sponsors, staff and volunteers. Sincerely, Floyd R. Gaetz Chair of the Board 2 Bringing the Hall’s Artifacts to the World Online by Tinisha Stilling he Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame is working on under “Collections”.

The next year he won the Canadian title. Healey Nova Scotia’s rich fought more than 225 amateur and professional bouts, with sport heritage an ability to outwit his opponents. Never knocked off his feet, he lost only eight professional bouts. Healey was inducted to the Hall of Fame with the original class in 1980. 3 This Hall of Fame display shows the evolution of hockey sticks from the 1800s through modern day, and from wood to light and flexible material composites. The first sticks (top in picture) were carved from a single piece of wood, but by the 1930s, were made of pieces of wood laminated together, preventing them from breaking as easily while adding some flexibility. In the 1960s, players started curving their blades, giving them greater control of the puck and influencing their shots. In the 1970s, the first fibreglass sticks were made–stronger and lighter than their wooden ancestors. By the 1980s, aluminum sticks, with replacement wooden blades, were introduced and gained popularity among professional players in the 1990s. Today, both the wooden stick and aluminum stick have become rarer among pros as new composite sticks made of materials such as fibreglass and carbon fibre have become a less durable, but lighter-weight, option. The wooden stick, however, is still a less expensive alternative to composite sticks and still is a popular choice for amateur players. Below: The 116th Dartmouth Natal Day Regatta was held in August 2011, hosted by the Banook Canoe Club. The club was founded in 1903 and began holding the regatta, along with other sport events and concerts, a year later. This trophy, displayed at the Hall, was presented to the Junior Singles winner in 1907. Above: This typewriter belonged to W.J. “Ace” Foley, a long-time sports writer and sports editor at the Halifax Chronicle Herald and Mail Star. He started his newspaper career in 1920 as a copy boy, spending, he said, as much time at the Halifax Herald as he did in school. He said in a book he wrote to commemorate 50 years as sports editor, “I’ve been in almost every nook and cranny of Nova Scotia at one time or another.”
