Welcome to Wayback Wednesday sponsored by Cavalcade Color Lab! Every week, we’ll be sharing a vintage photo and asking our readers to chime in with anything you can recall about the photo, other related memories, or even a funny caption. Have some vintage photos of your own? Send them to huntsville@doppleronline.ca and we may share them with our readers!<\/p>\n

Scroll down to see last week’s photo.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You might occasionally see cars of this vintage cruising down Main Street, but once a year the street is lined with them: the annual Shades of Autumn Classic Car Show. You can check it out this Saturday, September 18. In the meantime, did you\/your parents\/your grandparents own one of these beauties? Do you remember Main Street when it looked like this?

Last week we shared this photo with you:<\/div>\n

From left to right these boys are Roy MacGregor, Peter Salmon, Tim Kelly, Don Strano, and Doug Conway. Linda Kelly, who submitted the photo (thanks, Linda!), tells us this was from a weekend game of local kids. Tim was wearing a Detroit Red Wings jersey because he was on the team opposing the Leafs.<\/div>\n
Dave Johns shared with us: “Two of these fine lads played another form of hockey, back in the day, Floor Hockey. Pete Salmon and Doug Conway were two of the best at it. Sutherland Hall every Thursday night was the locale for rugged action on the hardwood floor at our Scout meeting. Cheap sport to play, just cut off your old hockey stick blade and lay some tape on both ends. A rubber puck wasn\u2019t used, it was replaced with a leather donut. No equipment was used so your legs from the knees down had a lot purple bruises all season. Thanks for the great photo.” And thank you for the fun memory, Dave!<\/div>\n
