Important Notes: There are two games. The times are:
• Game 1 – 3:55 pm and
• Game-2 - 8:50pm.
Between games there will be some time for socializing. A hockey pizza party will occur at the Pennacle, 4789 Riverside Dr E Windsor, ON, Use the back entrance of condo building to access the party room.

Crossing the border is always an interesting proposition. It is possible you will be waived through easily, but this is not assured. Build in extra time for delays.

The blog author notes that Saturday is Dim Sum day at Wah Court. The address of this Windsor restaurant and an explanation of Dim Sum can be found at http://www.wahcourtrestaurant.com/.
If you clear the border by 1 p.m. you would still have plenty of time for this delicious midday meal and there would be time for the food to settle before the game.

If you are more of a carnivore, there is always TBQ http://tunnelbarbq.com/

Turkey Tournament Time

We have the potential for tournament play over the Thanksgiving weekend. Two locations stand out as potential sites, Mt. Pleasant and Jackson. An e-mail was sent out by our team manager, Jean Martin. It reads in part:

I need to know from each family if they would be interested in doing a tournament over Thanksgiving? We would do one close to home. I am looking at Jackson and if they are full possibly Mt Pleasant. Both are easy drives and could be fun to test our skills. If you could let me know as soon as possible that would be great.

I looked up the Jackson tournament online. It appears the window to sign up for this closes in the next two or three days. If you have not responded to Jean’s e-mail with a yeah or nay on participation please do so now. In previous years the Jackson tournament was a three games guaranteed event. The blog thinks this could be a great deal of fun. Hey if nothing else this would be a great way for the team to work off some turkey bloat.
