Being an Executive Board Member, we are starting our fundraising drive for the upcoming 2012/2013 season. We are a non profit community organization, in its 45th year of operation in the City of Woodstock, as I am sure you are aware it’s getting harder to raise funds in these economic times. Being a community team, our future depends on the support of our sponsors, fans and volunteers. That is why, at this time, I am contacting you. We are looking for sponsors and hope we can count on you. If you are interested, there are many sponsorship options available within this package. If you would like to discuss any of them further, we would be happy to meet with you. You may contact us by phone or email and we can make arrangements to meet at your earliest convienience. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to hear from you soon. Woodstock Navy Vets Junior C Hockey Club Executive www.woodstocknavyvets.ca HISTORY OF THE WOODSTOCK NAVY VETS 1967: In The Beginning To begin, we wish to allow the words of Ron Johnson tell the story of this historic franchise earliest moments. The following is a excerpt from his booK, entitled, Go Vets Go: A History of the Woodstock Navy Vets Hockey Club. 1969: The Championship Season The Navy Vets won their only OHA Junior C Championship in the 1968-69 season, eliminating Dresden 4 games-to-0 in the quarter-final and New Hamburg 4 games-to-1 in the semi-final before beating Oakville Blades in 7 games in the final. 1978: Future NHL Star The Navy Vets roster for 1977-78 included a star rookie who would only play this one season with the Vets before moving on to higher levels and eventually a very successful NHL career ... Bernie Nichols. Clarence Schmalz Cup Appearances 1969: Woodstock Navy-Vets defeated Oakville Blades 4-games-to-3 1984: Penetang Kings defeated Woodstock Navy-Vets 4-games-to-none OHA Semi-Finals Appearances 1981: lost to Essex 73`s 1988: lost to Mooretown Flags 1995: Belle River Canadians defeated Woodstock Navy-Vets 4-games-to-none 2002: Essex 73`s defeated Woodstock Navy-Vets 4-games-to-none George S. Dudley Trophy Super "C" Appearances This trophy was awarded during the 1970s to a new class of junior hockey known as Super "C". The teams that competed were deemed to be from centres too small for Junior "B" but yet too big for Junior "C". The cities that competed for it: Barrie (MOJBHL) , Woodstock (ICJCHL & CJCHL) , Kitchener (CJBHL & WOJHL) , Owen Sound (CJCHL) , and Brantford (CJCHL); struggled throughout that decade to find Junior "B" leagues that suited their needs. While waiting, these teams generally played "down" in the Junior "C" level and awaited the Super "C" playoffs. The class was disbanded by 1976 as the only teams eligible for the championship had found homes in Junior "B". 1970: Barrie Colts defeated Woodstock Navy-Vets 4-games-to-3 ................

Special Jersey Sponsorship A large part of the WoodstocK Navy Vets community involvement taKes place in the form of our special jerseys. The 2011/2012 Season brought both Breast Cancer Awareness Jerseys and Remembrance Day Jerseys. In both cases, as will continue, the jerseys were auctioned off, with proceeds going to the charity in which the jersey represents. This program hinges upon the need for community sponsorship. This $1500 sponsorship places your company’s name on the entire set of jerseys for 3 years, at which time they will be auctioned off. What maKes this sponsorship opportunity truly great is that not only do your jerseys get worn in recognition of their cause for three years, for example Breast Cancer Awareness
