HOCKEY NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO’S AWARD WINNERS ANNOUNCED
Thunder Bay, ON. – Hockey Northwestern Ontario honoured our volunteers from across the branch during the awards luncheon, held as part of the Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the Valhalla Inn.
The 2017 T.B. (Bones) McCormack Meritorious Awards went to Joe Kompon of Thunder Bay, ON. Joe has been involved in the game for over fifty years as a player, coach, and administrator. His involvement started in minor hockey as a player which led to junior hockey and eventually to a hockey scholarship at the University of North Dakota. Joe started coaching minor hockey in 1985 and spent twenty years coaching. However, his biggest impression has been left in the board room as an executive member. Joe has sat on the minor hockey executives of
Westfort, KC, Thunder Bay Kings, Lakehead South and Lakehead Minor.
He has held the President role with Lakehead Minor for twenty years. He also sat on Hockey Northwestern Ontario’s board of directors for ten years ending his tenure in 2016.
