In case you missed it; we scooped up a hard fought W in our first game of the 2019 season last night, a low scoring 3-2 win over the Barrie Lakeshores. Our home and home series wraps up Sunday night in Barrie and then we’re back home to the PMC Tuesday night for an 8pm start against the Northmen

THANK YOU, Bruce MacDonald for this. Please pause for 2 minutes and read this: 1. Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going home (alone of course) after an unusua...lly hard day on the job. 2. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated. 3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home. 4. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it that far. 5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself. 6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. 7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. 8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. 9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!! 10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we’ll save at least one life. 11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a person’s life. 12. If this message comes around you... more than once please don’t get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack. See more

We know he would trade it in a heartbeat for the Cup but a huge CONGRATULATIONS still goes out to Jr. Lakers alum and PtboCanada native (via Lakefield, Ontario) Thomas Hoggarth on winning Canadian Lacrosse Association's Jim Bishop Award for Leadership and Sportsmanship!!

Check out this highlight reel goal from game 3 the Ontario Lacrosse Association MSL finals between Six Nations Chiefs and Peterborough Century 21 Lakers: Jr.Lakers alum Holden Cattoni losing his stick but then makes a perfect kick pass right into the stick of Cory Vitarelli, a member of our 2006 Minto Cup winning team, for the goal. Incredible!
