Remember the old colour scheme at the @PtboMemCentre, before the renovations? We have two of the yellow seats inside our Hall of Fame!
…sources say @petedalliday has the rest of the seats at his place, including the old greys in his backyard
🏆 MPP @DaveSmithPtbo brought me visit to the @PDSHOF. Founded in 1979, the museum houses a collection of over 10,000 pieces of memorabilia and artifacts dating back to the 1800s.
It tells the story of sport in the #Peterborough community. Thank you to Paul & Don for the tour!

Bobby Allan was in a class by himself, the finest lacrosse player in Canada during his peak. His consummate skill, agility and adroitness in faking a move made him one-of-a-kind. His backhand shot was a prototype move. https://t.co/SgqbW3ktNB #clhof
