Winter HomeComing
A special thanks to all those that made it back to campus last weekend for our 3rd Annual Winter HomeComing.  Highlights of the day included competitive hockey between 8 teams with "The Domingos" taking the trophy. Co-ed Volleyball proved to be great fun while fiercely competitive. We were excited to announce the first group of inductees to the Ridley Tiger Athletic Lives of Distinction and inductees to the Richard Coy '60 Hockey Wall of Distinction (see full story below). The Development Office would like to thank Bill Morrison '86 for chairing this event, and Natalie Iggulden-Burnard '98 and all those that volunteered to make this event a great success. We would also like to thank our generous event sponsors - The Smith Family/Tim Horton's, Mark and Erica Lepp '97, Phil Court '85 and Karen Murray, A. C. Tony and Cindy Fischer, Frank Girhiny, Pat Mowat, Dean Karachi '87 and Karen and Bill Morrison '86. Please click here to view pictures.
