pe 30 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, August 18, 1987 400 youngsters expected to register for hockey Registration for Minor Hockey in Port Perry will be held September 11 to 13 at the Scugog Arena and the organization is expecting about 400 youngsters will be playing this winter. Minor Hockey president Don Steele said last week the organiza- tion has been forced to raise registration fees this season because of increased costs for ice time and other general increases for operating the organization. The rental rates for ice time at both the Scugog and Blackstock arenas have increased by $5 per hour and this is the ma jor reason for the hike in the registration fees. The cost to register one player this year will be $135, compared with $110 last year. The cost for two players in one family will be $230 compared with $180 last year. For parents who register their children during the 3-day registration in September, there is a $10 discount, same as last year. The registration cost for Tyke players (ages 5-7) has also increas- ed from $60 last year to $90 this year, with the same $10 discount in effect. Mr. Steeles said Minor Hockey will, pay about $58,500 for ice rentals this year, up from just over $50,000 last year. The OMHA blanket in- surance package has also increas- ed by about $800, and there is a similar increase for the OMHA af- filiation fees. y The local organization has agreed to increase the pay for referees and time-keepers and this will add another $800 to the everay operating Costs. Aside from the increase in registration fees, the organization has hiked the per team entry fee for tournaments from $100 to $150. This Blackstock Fair Aug. 29 From page 1) a variety of old time competitions, such as a log sawing contest which spectators can participate in, will be taking place. After taking in these attractions, stop by Old MacDonald's Farm located in the arena and see the variety of animals on display. This area of the fair is always a favourite attraction with the young and not so young. Every country fair should have some musical entertainment for its visitors enjoyment. This year Blackstock Fair will present **'Coun- try Chords' - a barbershop harmony group consisting of 29 female performers. These har- monizing voices can be heard several times throughout the day. fee applies only to out-of-town teams that come to Port Perry for a tournament. One significant rule change this year will require all players to wear proper neck guards. Mr. Steele said the local organization is waiting for the OMHA to provide a list of ap- proved brand names for this impor- tant piece of equipment. Another rule change involves players eligible for play rep hockey in two different age groups. If a player receives a suspension, he must serve it. In the past, a player who received a suspension in one age group could avoid the suspen- sion by playing in the other age level. That's been changed by the ~ OMHA this season. Mr. Steele told the Star the local executive has decided to retain the no body checking rules for all House Leagues, including Pee Wee and Bantam. He said the executive does not want to take a chance that a player could be seriously injured. There can be a large difference in the size of players in the Pee Wee and Bantam leagues. Other changes of note for the com- ing season will provide a home tour- nament for all the B level rep teams, the first time this has happened in Port Perry. For example, the Atom rep tour- nament for A and B level teams will be held the same day with four teams in each level. The four teams in each division will play a round robin and a final, but A and B level teams will not play against each other in these tournaments. And the tournament for House League teams which has proved to be so successful over the last two seasons, will again be held during the School Break in March. Along with this musical presenta- tion the Pineridge Clog Dancers will be performing. for the crowds enjoyment. At 4:30, -the Horse Pull com- mences with classes for light and heavy horses, providing a show of keen competition. Following the horse pull, visitors to the fair can take in the Blackstock United Church Beef Bar-B-Que located within walking distance east of the fairgrounds. Tickets can be obtain- ed in advance or at the door. To wind up the day's events, dance the evening away at the Rec. Centre at the fairgrounds to the music of Herb Vine and The Crossroads.
