For the love of the game
Share For the love of the game on Facebook Share For the love of the game on Twitter Share For the love of the game on Linkedin Email For the love of the game linkThis is my husband Larry Brooks. Looking so very proud and happy in his retirement to take up employment at mostly the Rangers games or any other jobs offered. I can’t even put into words how much this meant to him. Having worked without any days off between Uniroyal and Goodrich for almost 40 years, having this responsibility and purpose and most of all the social contact and making new friends brought him so much joy. Other ushers and also patrons will remember his unending supply of JOLLY ROGER CANDY. This picture was taken when they had recently switched from burgundy suit jackets to the blue sport jacket and lime green shirts. Can’t remember who took the photo but a huge Thank you for capturing this proud moment. Alas a stroke curtailed things a bit but his employer was more than accommodating in welcoming him back. Then Covid hit.

Working on Rangers home broadcasts for Rogers TV, I’ve been lucky to meet some amazingly talented people. As a Kitchener kid who grew up listening to the legendary Don Cameron from The Aud or on the road, getting a chance to call a game in the booth next to his in 2017 (and have a quick picture and chat during the pre-game warm-up) is a moment I will forever be grateful for.- Dan Polischuk

I really learned how to pay attention at the age of 10! - John Querengesser

KISS 1976

I also have great memories of seeing both of my kids and their class, singing the national anthem, they loved that they got to tour the Ranger's dressing room!
And it was always a great time watching the Rangers play! - Shelley Milatz

Not only was the Canadian win special but the energy in the sold out facility was a phenomenal. - Kim Kugler

Peter DeBoer and Don Cameron
Share Peter DeBoer and Don Cameron on Facebook Share Peter DeBoer and Don Cameron on Twitter Share Peter DeBoer and Don Cameron on Linkedin Email Peter DeBoer and Don Cameron linkPeter DeBoer joined the Kitchener Rangers for their 2001/2002 season. In this picture, Peter is shown with his arm around the late Don Cameron, the voice of the Kitchener Rangers. This picture was taken on September 2nd, 2001 at the annual Kitchener Rangers Fan Day. It is hard to believe that it has been almost twenty years since this picture was taken. Both Peter and Don added so much to the Rangers and to the Kitchener Auditorium. What a great picture of the two of them together.
