Colchester Legion Stadium
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Colchester Legion Stadium is a 2,200-seat multi-purpose arena in Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Colchester Legion Stadium is home to the Truro Bearcats of the Maritime Junior A Hockey League. The facility has hosted the 1998 Allan Cup, 2001 World Under 17 Hockey Championships (co-hosted with New Glasgow) and the 2002 Fred Page Cup.
The arena hosted the Hockeyville NHL exhibition game between the Montreal Canadiens and Ottawa Senators on September 25, 2006. The Canadiens won the game 7-3. The nearby community of Salmon River won the CBC competition during the Spring of 2006.
Proposed renovations to the stadium are currently in the design stage. The Town of Truro and Municipality of Colchester County had agreed to co-operate in constructing a replacement stadium should the region win the right to be Nova Scotia's host community for the 2011 Canada Winter Games however the agreement was cancelled after Halifax won the right to be the host community.
