Stix n' Pix Fall Update
We are extremely pleased to announce that our Gala was a huge success!!

The response from the community was amazing. All 180 tickets were sold in a matter on 10 days. Ron MacLean and Wendal Clark were our headline guests who shared hockey stories and their individual time with all who were present. We were also honoured with the presence of Jim Gregory president of the Hockey Association, Jamie Allison retired NHL and musician, Dave Hutchinson retired NHL, Mark LaForest NHL, international sports artist David Arrigo. After a fabulous meal from Devlin’s Country Bistro, the audience was treated to some musical entertainment by Jamie Allison and then we heard many entertaining stories from the world of professional hockey from our special NHL guests. 

Many lucky guests were able to purchase prime hockey memorabilia or have their photo taken with the guests of honour. 

This was our second Gala and a very successful fund raiser for our program for 2018-19

We have a few very special donors we would like to thank.

First of all, many thanks to the wonderful 100 Men Who Give A Dam for their generous donation of 10,000. This very generous donation will make a huge difference in the programs we can support this year.

We want to acknowledge Mike Fredericks for his personal donation of $5,000.00 to our efforts. We are also very grateful for his support in developing our video by allowing us to borrow the expertise of his very talented company at Annex Publishing.

 Your generosity allows us to do more for children in Norfolk.

Otter Creek Golf Club - Otterville
The Otter Creek Golf Club is located in the rural farm community of Otterville, Ontario, a short 20 minute drive from Woodstock. Designed by renowned Canadian golf course architect Dick Kirkpatrick, Otter Creek opened its doors to the public on July 1, 2008. Encompassing 300 acres and carved through the wooded valleys of Otter, Cedar and Spittler Creeks, the golf course meanders cleverly over former farmer's fields and tobacco lands. Measuring just over 7,100 yards and featuring six sets of tees, Otter Creek was designed to challenge players of all skill levels. From the forward tees, minimal forced carries make the golf course extremely playable for those new to the game. Construction of our rustic 5,000-square-foot clubhouse and 1,500-square-foot patio was completed in 2010. Open to the public, both the clubhouse and patio offer stunning views of the 18th hole as it carves through the wooded creek valley. Otter Creek is the ideal venue for any tournament or corporate event. To book a tee time, call us at 519-879-9800.
