He was the only Durham Region player in this division to win an award. Congratulations to all the winners and to the teammates who supported them. CORRECTION In the Nov. 30 edition of the Free Press, an article was printed about the 82nd. Video Station which recently opened in Whitby. The article stated that this video outlet is the only video station in Whitby and Oshawa to provide movies in both Beta and VHS for- mats. This information is incorrect, as Economy Home Video also supplies videos in both formats, in their four Oshawa outlets. The 82nd Video Station is the only Whitby outlet to supply the Beta and VHS movies. Our apologies.
