What time do things start on Saturday?
Unknown this year. Probably 9:00 like past years.

What time do things end on Sunday?
In the past, things are generally over by 4pm Sunday (again, this all depends)

Is there a party on Saturday night?
Of course!

Where is the party?
The location of the party is at the 1500 Pub & Cues located at 1500 Regent Street South. The Cardinal Motor Inn is located adjacent to the bar.

What do I wear?
It's a good idea to wear waterproof boots, and bring many, many changes of socks. The more socks you pack, the happier you'll feel! If it's cold, eye and face protection can really help against the wind, too. 

You should also bring some form of a team uniform, or a light and a dark shirt to wear over your winter gear.  Team toques will be provided.
