Now therefore, the Council of the Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury hereby resolves: That in recognition of his tireless efforts to promote and grow youth sports, Council expresses its great appreciation to Paul Dossey’s family, friends and the local minor hockey community by renaming the Leisure Centre “blue” ice pad as the “Paul Dossey Rink”.
