FROM THE VALLEY: Ice: the spinal volunteer

Tom Valley From the Valley Dec 17, 2020 Tom Valley A legendary, Canadian sportscaster from CKWS, Kingston, Ont., used to sign off his broadcasts with “This is Max Jackson, leaving you with this reminder: if you don t play a sport … be one.” Great tagline. It was sage advice and regardless that it may have appeared to be just a flippant way of wrapping things up, it meant more to me. Coming from someone who made his living from sports, it carried an extra oomph of gravitas. I appreciated the chutzpah he had to encourage people to prioritize their lives and put athletics in perspective. And it stands out even more now, because it was delivered in a day and age when greed and self-absorption had yet to rip the simple satisfaction of competition from our better selves. Almost a forewarning of what was to come.
