FRANK YMOCK CLASSIC - TOURNAMENT WRAP UP
Another successful Frank Dymock Classic is in the books.

On behalf of the Wallaceburg Minor Hockey Association, the Frank Dymock family and the Frank Dymock Tournament Committee I want to thank everyone who was part of this year's tournament.
 
With this being the 10th year it was bigger than ever, registering 32 teams (26 of those from outside of Wallaceburg) and it was the most successful in my 4 years at the helm.  With a tournament this large there is a lot of work and support that is involved and I want to thank all the volunteers (you know who you are!), all the people who made bake sale donations and the community of Wallaceburg (and surrounding areas) for welcoming all the participants.  A huge thank-you goes out to all our sponsors and businesses that advertised with us and donated services to help make this tournament happen year after year.
           
A special thanks to the Dymock Family, Bob Weese and our major sponsors for joining us for the ceremony on Saturday.  And last but not least, thank you to all the teams involved, without you the tournament wouldn't be worth while.  I look forward to having many of you back next year especially the teams that won their divisions; we hope you return to defend your title!

Big Chief Drive-in Restaurant
While here for the tournament take a trip out to The Chief to experience the most sincere burger joint in Southwestern Ontario (5001 Dufferin Ave Wallaceburg).Old fashioned and unpretentious - we've been flipping homemade burgers since 1957. There are many modern imitators but we remain authentic and insulated from food fads. There's nothing like a burger, fries and a shake from the folks who haven't forgotten how to do them right.
