Through Ross’ contribu- tion, students at TPS were able to meet with Jr. ‘A’ hockey players, listen to their personal stories and get autographs signed. It was a great experience for students who got to hear why these world-class athletes chose Tottenham to further their hockey careers. Ross was also on hand at the opening ceremonies Saturday night at the Tottenham Community & Fitness Centre – home ice for the Steam – to listen to members of the TPS Choir sing the Canadian national anthem and to drop the puck.
