One of Saugeen Shores’ favourite residents, Vi Cottrill, celebrated her 80th birthday in style on December 19 at the Winterhawks game at the Plex.
Following her massive birthday blowout at Port Elgin’s United Church earlier in the day, with over 200 people in attendance, Vi was ready to keep the party going, dropping the puck to start the game and handing out birthday donuts between the first and second periods.
Vi’s sister Wilma Gostic was elated with the number of people in attendance at the earlier celebration at the church; where everyone was asked to wear pink to celebrate with Cottrill.
“She received over 25 gifts and around 75 cards that we have still yet to open,” said Gostic during their busy day.
Vi was also presented with a comfy chair from the Winterhawks so she could continue to watch her favourite team play in style and comfort.
