🔈ANNONCE MAJEURE CONCERNANT L'HORAIRE 📣📣

Chers partisant des Comets, suites aux bris mécaniques qui ont eu lieu à l'aréna de Fort-Coulonge, nous voulons vous assurez que l'aréna fait le tout en son possible pour rectifier la situation le plus tôt que possible. Bien que les circonstances ne sont pas tel que prévues, nous voulons vous assurez que la saison de nos Comets ne sera pas affectée.
Ceci étant dit, nous avons le plaisir de vous annoncer que les dirigeants du Centre Communautaire de Shawville ont accepté de nous accueillir en ce début de saison. Leur ouverture et générosité nous permettra de jouer nos premiers matchs locaux de la saison à Shawville, situé à seulement quelques minutes de notre domicile de Fort-Coulonge.
Prennez note, que le match d'ouverture aura toujours lieu cette fin de semaine, par contre, il sera joué ce dimanche 27 octobre à 5:30PM Contre les Mustangs de South Stormont, aulieu de samedi soir. Une cérémonie d'ouverture aura lieu, ainsi qu'une mise au jeu officielle tel que prévu.

L'organisation des Comets est extrêmement reconnaissante de cette opportunité. Cette situation, bien que hors de notre contrôle, démontre bien le sentiment d'appartenance et de soutien présent dans notre communauté du Pontiac!

Nous souhaitons remercier le Centre de Loisirs des Draveurs Century 21 Élite pour leur bon travail, ainsi que tous les bénévoles qui supportent la cause. Nous tenons aussi à remercier la municipalité de Shawville pour nous avoir acceuillis dans un délai aussi court.

À tout nos partisans du Pontiac, nous vous invitons donc à venir nous encourager nos Comets dans nos premieres parties locales à l'aréna de Shawville.
Notre horaire se retrouve au www.seniorcometshockey.ca

Nous tenons aussi à préciser que tout les partisans qui détiennent une passe de saison, que les billets seront valides, même si nous changeons d'établissement.

MAJOR SCHEDULE ANNOUNCEMENT

Dear Comets fans, following the mechanical breakdown at the Fort-Coulonge arena, we want to assure you that the arena is doing everything possible to rectify the situation as soon as possible. Although the circumstances are not as expected, we want to assure you that our Comets' season will not be affected.
That said, we are pleased to announce that the Shawville Community Centre has agreed to welcome us at the start of the season. Their openness and generosity will enable us to play our first local games of the season in Shawville, located just a few minutes from our home in Fort-Coulonge.
Please note that the opening game will still take place this weekend, but will be played on Sunday, October 27 at 5:30PM against the South Stormont Mustangs, instead of Saturday night. An opening ceremony will take place, as well as an official puck drop as scheduled.

The Comets organisation is extremely grateful for this opportunity. This situation, although beyond our control, demonstrates the sense of belonging and support in our Pontiac community!

We would like to thank the Centre de Loisirs des Draveurs Century 21 Élite for their hard work, as well as all the volunteers who support the cause. We'd also like to thank the municipality of Shawville for welcoming us on such a short notice.

To all our Pontiac fans, we invite you to come and cheer on our Comets in our first local games at the Shawville arena.
