Parent from the 2009 Summer Skills Development Camp “First of all I would like to extend a huge Thank-You to you and your team for including my son into your hockey camp in Mount Pearl. He really enjoyed the whole experience and is already asking if there will be another camp next summer. The whole experience at the camp was very enjoyable, educational and above all rewarding for the both of us. It was the first ever camp that I’ve entered my son into and I definitely had no regrets!” Interested players and parents can receive more information on the Hockey Canada Summer Skills Development Camp by contacting Paul Dagg at Hockey Canada’s Atlantic Regional Centre at (506) 642-0490 or pdagg@hockeycanada.ca _________________________________________________________________________________________________ HOCKEY CANADA’S ATLANTIC REGIONAL CENTRE NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR 2011 TEAM ATLANTIC Saint John, NB – Hockey Canada’s Atlantic Regional Centre is pleased to announce that they are now accepting applications for their 2011 Male Under 17 Team Atlantic program.
