I must admit, it's been several years since I attended the Comp. But it's a nostalgic process…read morereviewing one's old high school, and one I feel it's time for me to do. For those currently looking for reviews on what the high school is like, how the teachers are, what kind of programs are run here... I have no idea. I graduated in the year 2000. I did spend countless hours here over the course of 3 years from 1997-2000, and without doing too much of a walk down memory lane, I can tell you what it was like then. Population wise, I think the school saw around 800-900 kids come through its doors every day. The times were peaceful, fights weren't common, skipping class to head across the street for a slushy may have been more common. Classes ranged from your typical 13, 23, 33 and 10, 20, 30 to a couple of honours courses. There were a variety of extra curriculars as well... art, cosmetology, music, mechanics, gym, drafting, construction (the latter two being more my cup of tea). There was a healthy level of school sports happening as well. Did you know we had a girls rugby team before we had a boys rugby team? Oh yes... it's a fact I tell others with pride when I reminisce. I tried out for it before I even got to grade 10. Those were the days... The school organized some great student trips as well. In my gr 11 year, we headed on a study tour to Costa Rica. And in grade 12, most of my friends were in choir and band and going to England. There wasn't any way I was going to be the only one left behind, so I sang my way onto the trip through a choir tryout that last year. It's the only high school in the county as far as I'm aware. Unless you want to bus your kids in the other direction to Leduc (or even further), there really isn't much choice in terms of a public high school. In fact, it's pretty much your only choice. But it's a sizable school, it's undergone some upgrades in the last decade and my experience there was quite pleasant.

Edmonton's very own professional soccer (err... Football) club!…read more FC Edmonton (or the Eddies) play in the NASL (division 2 soccer in North America). And while no one will mistake the league for being the Premier League in England, the players are very good. And perhaps more importantly they are clearly playing for the love of the game. The team plays in Clarke Stadium which the team (along with the city) have spent quite a bit of time renovating to help the team out including adding new bleachers on the east side. If you want to really get into the spirit you can sit in section 107 which is the supporters section. Just be prepared to stand and cheer all game long! Overall well worth going to for a fun afternoon/evening of soccer. At $20 tickets are priced just right. Go Eddies Go!

The Oilers were founded in 1971 by W. D. "Wild Bill" Hunter and Dr. Chuck Allard and played its first season in 1972 as one of the twelve founding franchises of the major professional World Hockey Association (WHA). After joining the NHL, the Oilers went on to win the Stanley Cupon five occasions: 1983-84, 1984-85, 1986-87, 1987-88 and 1989-90. Along with the Pittsburgh Penguins, they are tied for the most championshipswon by any team since the NHL-WHA merger, as well as the most won by any team that joined the league in or after 1967. Tonight is their night to shine. I'm sorry Dallas but I'm rooting for Edmonton Oilers.

You get a few hours of fun and the game may seem complicated but if you check out the rules it is actually pretty simple. Each team has a Jammer indicated by a star on their helmet. Those players score points by passing people on the track. Only the Jammer in the lead gets the points. Games are quite exciting as it is faced paced and very active. These women and men are very athletic! The games are licensed so you can enjoy some bevvies. There is also food things to buy. They often do baked goods or canteen food. There are also merchandise tables to buy roller derby associated goods. At the last game we were at they even had a massage therapist doing free 5 minute chair massages. So come out and try something new and have some fun. Support some local athletes and have a unique date!

I held a 4 month old for most of the show :) When a friend of a friend started wrestling, I decided to tag along with them one night. Seems like there are events the first Saturday of every month and tickets are $20 each. And you're in for 2 and a half hours of entertainment! For the most part, the wrestlers put on a great show. They stick to their characters and really interact with the crowd. I loved seeing the group of kids that get REALLY into it. It's good for a family outing... it's good for a date. It's just a fun time all around.

You know when you're in Edmonton you have to be a hockey fan. My kids play hockey and the first…read moretime I ended up at an Oil Kings game it was with the kids teams and I wasn't sure what to think but wow did I have a good time. The Oil Kings are geared towards a fun family night out. Not only is it good hockey (which is great if you are into the game) but they have lots of entertaining things happening throughout the game as well. They have fun little games, the T-shirt throws, the wave (who doesn't like that), sing-a-longs etc. The team also encourages lots of community involvement. We have gone with our hockey team and the kids have played on the ice, we've seen other teams there as the honour guard, and bench warming. It's so much fun to be part of the action. Every year the Oil Kings also does the teddy bear toss which raises both funds and teddy bears for Ronald McDonald House and it shows their community spirit which is fantastic to see in a local sports club. If you have never been out to a game I would say take advantage of their pricing - it's a great night out for a club or a family. While you might not be able to afford to go to an Oilers game you can definitely afford to the go to an Oil Kings game - same action and so much more fun for kids and families.

The Edmonton Oil Kings are a Western Hockey League team that started in Edmonton for the 2007-08…read moreseason. The Western Hockey League is the top junior league in Western Canada and is a part of the Canadian Hockey League. This is the second best hockey you'll get in Edmonton, next to the Edmonton Oilers. But for the price, the Oil Kings are of much better value. Both teams play at Rexall Place, and an Oilers seat that will cost you $200, will cost you about $25 for an Oil Kings game. Although it isn't top tier hockey, it is fast-paced and high energy because the players are trying to get drafted into the NHL and impress the scouts who are always paying attention. The Oil Kings sell themselves as being family-oriented hockey (probably because most people can afford to bring family to a game) so it is a totally different atmosphere than an Oilers game. There are a lot of games going on during the TV time outs that are geared towards kids. The club also has a lot of promotional nights to draw people in, such as Wiener Wednesdays ($2 weenies!), vuvuzela nights, 80s nights, and they will often give away merch to the first 1000 people through the door. We were at a game the other night and the Oil Kings scored five goals, so everyone got a $10 Earl's gift card in their way out. If you are looking to catch a quality hockey game and either can't get Oilers tickets or just want to spend less, the Oil Kings are a great option. It can be a fun night with friends if you don't want to splurge on the Oilers. Tickets range from $17-$35, plus service charge.
