United Way Hockey Challenge

Tomorrow is a big day...I'm actually a bit nervous. If you're looking for a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon just head down to the Memorial Centre. The Level A United Way Hockey Challenge gets under way at 1pm as the the Conservatives take on the United Way All-Stars. This year I'll be emceeing the event alongside KRUZ FM's Gord Gibb and you can expect a few changes to really jazz up the event. The second period has been replaced by a skills competition, there will also be a shoot out contest where one lucky individual could score their hockey team $10,000 and the Olympic Torch will also be on hand. So come check out the game, meet som former NHL'ers and raise some funds for the United Way! Tickets are between $5 and $8 and all of that money stays right here in Peterborough.

In The Clear

















It's not that there will be a lack of weather over the next few days...just a lack of weather over much of Ontario. After a few flurries tonight and a chance for a few more tomorrow morning an area of high pressure pushes in and looks to be with us for the long haul. That big blue "H" you see in the pic above is an area of subsiding air that will keep things nice and sunny over the next few days. We'll see our first hint of sunshine tomorrow afternoon and, if this model holds true, this high should keep all of that precipitation you see in the pic well to the south...at least until Sunday. Expect warm, sunny days and clear cool nights to round out the week.
