The Hub leaves our readers' imaginations to complete this picture.

The Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre was a bopping hub of activity Friday afternoon, and the intensity will only ramp up as the Alumni & Celebrity Classic rolls into the rink for the evening's match-up and post-game party.

There was serious business first – the East versus West High School Challenge Cup games, girls then boys, the Owen Sound District Secondary School Wolves versus the St. Mary's High School Mustangs.

The Cups both went east, the Mustangs over the Wolves 5 - 3 in the girls game, 3 - 2 in the boys.

The Mustangs, the Wolves, and all their fans celebrate the girls' game.

The St. Mary's Mustangs held off the OSDSS Wolves to take the girls' Challenge Cup.

Victoria Bach leaves a lasting impression on Owen Sound's hockey players.

The Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre is thrumming with activity this weekend.

Kids were bused in to fill the seats.

It's a beacon, a glowing beacon of pretzelly goodness.

There's nothing like rink food, and everyone has their favourite.

It's always better when someone lines up for you.

"Chuck A Puck," they say. Pucks chucked.

The sentiment is great – and the artwork is fantastic.

Live from the 'Shore, it's ... Friday afternoon. Local Rogers broadcasters have the HDIC weekend covered.

Hockey Day In Canada festivities wind up Saturday, Jan. 21, starting with the Girls Hockey Fest at the Bayshore, followed by fast-paced very competitive PWHPA and OUA games also at the Bayshore; the Stanley Cup Parade from Scotiabank downtown to Harrison Park; the Scotiabank Hockey Day In Canada live broadcast with host Ron MacLean; Maple Leafs clinics, shinny and public skating also at the park during the broadcast; and winding up back at the Bayshore as the Owen Sound Attack take on the Peterborough Petes in OHL action at 6:30 p.m.
