IP1 and IP2 Update
With the start of the IP1/IP2 season starting Monday, we have a few requests and house keeping items to help make tomorrow fun and safe for all.

STMHA and the volunteers/coaches of the IP1/IP2 age group have asked for a few things to happen for tomorrow.

1. Please write your players name on a label or piece of tape and place it on the front of their helmets. This will help identify all the players.

2. Please remember to bring a jersey, socks, and most important a neck guard.

3. We understand the excitement surrounding the first skate, we have allot of volunteers in place to help with the on ice portion. PLEASE absolutely no parent to be walking on the ice surface. All our volunteers will be wearing helmets. Parents are NOT to be on the ice at any time. We know that the door where the players first go out is usually a staging area for those kids who are new to skating. Please do not go on the ice to help them. Our volunteers will try to make their rounds to assist in any way they can.

4. please watch the website for updates and schedules.

5. teams will be assigned shortly, and team jerseys will be handed out on the first scheduled game.

6. Please remember the Joe Facility will be closed for the NHL hometown hockey festivities and IP1/IP2 will be out of Memorial arena on Saturday the 23rd.


Thanks and Have Fun

M & M Food Market
Food’s our thing. But like most things, every once in a while they need to be revamped. Given a fresh new look. A fresh new taste. So that’s exactly what we did. We’ve changed to bring you more. More real tastes, real adventures, real experiences. So real, that our food is now completely free of artificial flavours, colours or sweeteners. Because you expect more from your food. So that’s what we’re giving you. More than meat. We’re giving you a place to create inspired dishes. And to find everything you need to make dinner worth sitting down for again. Just as your needs have changed, we’ve changed for you.

True Sport
The True Sport Principles are a rallying point for True Sport members — they are universal. The principles can be brought to life in any sport at any level, from playground to podium. An Olympic rowing squad can embrace these principles with the same sense of pride and purpose as an elementary school, an old-timers' league, or a community hockey arena. For sport to be truly good and have the opportunity to make the greatest difference, all seven of these principles need to be in play at all times, working in perfect balance with one another.
