Old Boys

From the desk of Wade Gowl:

  • The Toronto York Yeoman weekend is in 2 weeks!!! - April 19th revives a tradition from the 70’s and 80’s where we would play them every April, home one year - away the next. Hosting them was a very big part of the fun. It made friends that lasted. Our old boys will be out in force doing their part with the Yeoman bringing down an old boys side in addition to their club side to play our first’s. Gear up to volunteer to host one or two for that weekend. The good times will last forever. Coming in that Friday on a bus we’ll meet them at at our home bar, Mum's in Federal Hill at 5:00 p.m. (or as soon as you can after 5:00) and we'll divvy them out.
