PHOTO BY WENDY GABREK CHAMBER SUPPORTS THE FOOD BANK – On Saturday, the Tottenham–Beeton & District Chamber of Commerce pre- sented the Our Town Food Bank with a cheque for $410 at the Tottenham Foodland store. The proceeds, raised at the Chamber’s Gala Awards event last Thursday, will be used to keep the shelves full at the food bank, which supports over 100 local families weekly, this Thanksgiving. Specifi cally, the funds were raised through the auction of a hockey stick – signed by Tottenham Steam hockey players on their inaugural home game – and the raffl e of centerpieces, donated by the fl oral de- partment at Tottenham Foodland. Pictured, from left: Rory McGlade (who won the auction for the hockey stick, paying $210), Tottenham Steam hockey player Sarawut Danielsson from Sweden, Our Town Food Bank representative Robine Hawkes, TBDCC president Jess Prothero, Tottenham Steam representative Colleen Rideout, Tottenham Foodland owner Johanne Leduc, fl orist Jaclyn Topp–Parsons. The Tottenham Steam will also be collecting for the food bank this Saturday night at the Tottenham Community Fitness Centre. Page 4 – October 9, 2014 – The TIMES

Hockley Dark A BRUNETTE WITH THE BODY OF A BLONDE. Our Brewmaster had a penchant for English ale, Dso he created something better, combining two styles of ales he fancied while studying and brewing his way across the UK. It’s an ingenius hybrid of a Northern Brown Ale and a Midlands E Mild, with a body tweaked to give it a lighter, more North American appeal.

Hints of roasted nuts, caramel, chocolate, and coffee combine to make this award winner one of Ontario’s best-selling craft beers. www.hockleybeer.ca photos by Wendy Gabrek

Hornets win at home – Steam smoke Rattlers in huge comeback lose on the road BY BRIAN LOCKHART The Alliston Junior C Hornets had a .500 weekend after winning their Friday (Oct. 3) night home game against the Midland Flyers but losing on the road to the Huntsville Otters. Friday’s home game was all Alliston for the three peri- ods when they spent a lot more time in the Flyers end of the ice and put up a good defensive posture that kept the Midland team scrambling at the blue line. The Hornets went ahead by two in the fi rst period on a powerplay goal from Mark O’Donnell and a second goal 29 seconds later from Matt Cochrane. Despite the two goal lead, the score didn’t tell the whole story as the Hornets had a lot more chances to bury the puck but just couldn’t fi nd the back of the net. “We weren’t capitalizing.

We look forward to working with the City of Barrie and the Township of Oro-Medonte to enhance airport services and grow our region’s economy. The LSRA is one of the top-ten busiest airports of its size and category in Canada. It is fully serviced by the Canada Border Service Agency and maintains Commercial Port-of-Entry status, allowing international passengers and freight. This is a true boost to our economy and we hope to build on this partnership to benefi t all our residents and businesses throughout the BASEBAR region. With so many economic development successes, both locally and regionally, I would like to remind everyone that small business week in Canada runs October 20 to 24, 2014. Organizations and municipalities across Simcoe County have come together to host a week full of events aimed at supporting small businesses and helping them grow.
