Champions Cross Mentoring Program – The
next Champions workshop will take place on October
26 & 27th, 2006 in Winnipeg. This is now a Thursday
and Friday to avoid conflicts with weekend tournaments.
The Champions Program is a leadership initiative that
focuses on dealing with peer pressure, making the right
choices, saying no to drugs, tobacco and alcohol. High
school student leaders that attend the two day workshop
go on to act as mentors in grade 5 classrooms, speaking
on the same topics and helping the younger students
develop their skills. For further information or to
register, contact Ron Paseshnik at 925-5643 or champions@mhsaa.ca,
or visit the website, http://www.mhsaa.mb.ca/pages/champions_mentor.php.

Message Board

corner. This brings up a rather lengthy form, but
the only required fields are a user name, password,
email address and one field that has a code. The
user name and password for this message board are
up to you, so make sure that it is something that
you will remember. You are only required to register
once. After you have done this, you will receive
an email confirming your registration, with a link
to click for activation of your account. After completing
