The Town of Huntsville invites everyone to the dedication of the Winston Watson display this Friday November 2, 2018, at the Canada Summit Centre in Huntsville.<\/p>\n

Mayor Scott Aitchison and Sports Memorabilia Chair Councillor Jonathan Wiebe, along with members of the Watson family and friends, will formally unveil the display on the first floor of the Don Lough arena.<\/p>\n

“Winston was a gentleman, a scholar, a sportsman and a mentor to many,” said Mayor Aitchison. “We are proud to acknowledge his contributions.”<\/p>\n

Winston Watson (August 27, 1940 to March 11, 2015) was a valued volunteer in Huntsville, with a heightened sense of fair play and enthusiasm. Winston was a loved husband, father, grandfather and mentor. Winston was a retired principal, an occasional supply teacher and tutor, a referee director for the Huntsville Minor Hockey Association, and a baseball umpire.<\/p>\n

In 2015, Winston Watson posthumously received the Canadian Tire Hero of Play Award, during the Century Tour celebrating the 100th anniversary of Hockey Canada, to mark Winston\u2019s years of behind-the-scenes work contributing to athletic success in the community.<\/p>\n

Winston Watson had a passion for fair play in life and in sport, he instilled confidence, and he inspired many in our community.<\/p>\n

Everyone is welcome to attend the dedication at 11:30 a.m. on Friday November 2, 2018 in the lower warm viewing area of the Don Lough arena at the Canada Summit Centre. The Winston Watson Memorial Tournament is set to begin at noon directly following the dedication.<\/p>\n
