In addition to these spectacular sports franchises, TD Place has also hosted performances by headline acts and entertainers, such as AC/DC, Meatloaf, The Brier, FIFA Women's World Cup 2015 and UFC with many more spectacular events to come. All of this is surrounded by restaurants, shops, services, parks and the excitement of the bustling Lansdowne community.

The new downtown sports and entertainment district at Lansdowne is a partnership between OSEG and the City of Ottawa. It’s a “go-to” destination for residents and visitors, offering live sports, entertainment, shopping, condominium living and a major new urban park. Initially, OSEG was founded to re-establish a CFL team in Ottawa. However, the city’s stadium required major renovations, which were not feasible without a comprehensive plan for the revitalization of the entire 48-acre site. The Lansdowne Partnership Plan, which offered a vision for a new, vibrant and transformed Lansdowne, was developed and presented to City Council on September 2, 2009. Over the next three years, with extensive input from local communities and Ottawa residents at-large, the plan was refined and approved for implementation by Council on October 11, 2012. The district will also feature two condominium towers, townhomes, a 33,500-square meter shopping/restaurant district, an office tower, 1,300 underground parking spaces and an 18-acre urban park. OSEG operates the CFL’s Ottawa REDBLACKS, the NASL’s Ottawa Fury FC and the OHL’s Ottawa’s 67’s. OSEG will also manage TD Place and the mixed-use areas and facilities on the site. OSEG Partners: John Ruddy, Jeff Hunt, Bill Shenkman, John Pugh and Roger Greenberg. ABOUT OSEG OTTAWA REDBLACKS Lansdowne features TD Place, a 24,000-seat stadium for football, soccer, concerts (34,000 capacity) and other major events. This includes a refurbished 9,862-seat arena for the Ottawa 67’s of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL).

Young OL ALL-TIME ROSTER OTTAWA REDBLACKS Chevon Walker 199 OTTAWA FOOTBALL HISTORY FRANK CLAIR Frank Clair was a football man who became synonymous with the sport in Ottawa. As coach, Clair guided the Riders to Grey Cup wins in 1960, 1968 and 1969. To this day, he has more wins (116) than any other coach in Ottawa professional football history. His 147 career CFL coaching victories (he had 31 with the Argos from 1950 to 1954) rank third all-time in league history, only behind Wally Buono and Don Matthews. He was one of only four men to coach CFL teams to five Grey Cup championships. The others: Buono, Matthews and Hugh Campbell. As a general manager, Clair added two Grey Cups with the Rough Riders in 1973 and 1976. He was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 1981. Clair died in Sarasota, Florida on April 3, 2005 and will always be remembered by Ottawa football fans for his contributions to the sport and his historic place in the remarkable sports fabric of the city.

This year, 40 years after that dramatic, final play victory and everything that led up to it, will be honoured by the REDBLACKS in the very spot where Ottawa stood victorious on Nov. 28, 1976. To mark the last time an Ottawa football team won a Grey Cup, many members of that historic squad will be on hand for the celebration on July 31 at TD Place against Toronto, including Tony Gabriel, who hauled in the famous winning catch thrown by quarterback Tom Clements. The tribute will give fans an opportunity to meet and greet members of the ’76 Riders at a pre-game party and salute the team during a special half-time ceremony. Four decades later, that moment and the game as a whole is fondly and vividly remembered by those who played in the game, including former Rough Riderturned-TSN 1200 REDBLACKS analyst Jeff Avery, who was a rookie in Ottawa in 1976. HONOURING THE PAST 76 ROUGH RIDERS “We were just focused,” he said of the moments leading up to The Catch. “TC (Clements) is calling the plays and we're running the plays. We had a lot of confidence in our offence and you're out there to do a job. We weren't feeling rushed.” As celebrations exploded in the end zone, Avery sought out his teammate. Gabriel, for his part, said that Grey Cup win is “indelibly inscribed in my mind.” So too is what happened right before he and Avery began celebrating in the end zone. It's a story that became famous over the years. “I was upset with myself because I used to do the double spike and I did it then,” said Gabriel, who never saw the ball from the winning catch again. At the time, neither Gabriel nor Avery could have possibly known they'd still be telling the stories from that Grey Cup win four decades later. “Absolutely not,” said Avery, who played seven seasons in Ottawa. “I was in my first year, everybody figures when you're in the Grey Cup in your first year that you'll be back. And we were back, we almost won in '81.” As for Gabriel, he fully understands why that win still means so much for this city, though he is quite confident there will be another moment, sooner or later, to overtake his legend. “The opposite could have happened, I could have dropped that ball and been held in infamy and I would have kept running through that end zone and into retirement,” he said. “It was a special moment in time and it was the last time a team in Ottawa has won the Grey Cup, so it certainly has that little extra flavour. But you know that's going to be changing soon.” OTTAWA FOOTBALL HISTORY OTTAWA REDBLACKS “I was just looking for Tony to give him a big friggin' hug, we were jumping up and down in the end zone,” he said. 233 MEDIA INFORMATION OTTAWA BROADCAST AND MEDIA TSN 1200 OTTAWA TSN Brent Wallace [email protected] A.J. Jakubec will serve his third season as the official play-byplay voice of the REDBLACKS. The 40-year-old Edmonton native began his broadcasting career in Trail, B.C. before moving to Kelowna, Edmonton and Ottawa. Jeff Avery’s voice has become a welcome sound for Ottawa CFL fans. The former receiver with the Ottawa Rough Riders for seven seasons from the mid ‘70s and into the early ‘80s has served as a colour commentator on radio broadcasts of the Rough Riders, the Renegades and now REDBLACKS football. Born and raised in Ottawa, Avery attended Woodroffe High School (1967-71) and played football at the University of Ottawa, winning the Vanier Cup with the Gee-Gees with the 1975 undefeated squad. Avery, a two-time Eastern All-Star, won the Grey Cup with the Riders in 1976 and played for Ottawa in the 1981 championship match.

MEDIA INFORMATION OTTAWA REDBLACKS Jakubec, an 18-year broadcasting veteran, has called nine different sports (hockey, football, soccer, basketball, baseball, boxing, lacrosse, auto racing and MMA), highlighted by games with the REDBLACKS, Ottawa Fury FC, Ottawa 67’s, Ottawa Senators, Montreal Canadiens and the Edmonton Oil Kings. CTV OTTAWA 235 IN THE COMMUNITY COMMUNITY INITIATIVES IN THE COMMUNITY The Ottawa REDBLACKS players, staff, cheerleaders, and even Big Joe are all proud to be active members in the Ottawa-Gatineau community. They have partnered with many great organizations throughout Eastern Ontario & Western Quebec. In addition, the Ottawa REDBLACKS players are also very active in the Minor Football community. They take part in various tournaments, clinics, games, and events surrounding high school and minor football throughout the region. The Ottawa REDBLACKS look forward to building a legacy of community support programs. REDBLACKS CHEERLEADING & DANCE TEAM The Cheerleading and Dance program is led by Orléans native Lisa Aucoin and her husband, Kenny Feeley. Kenny was a national champion cheerleader at the University of Louisville and Gym Tyme All-Stars in Kentucky and is a coach of the Canadian co-ed elite team, five-time world champions. Lisa is the International Regional Director for Cheerleading in Canada and a judge at the ICU Cheerleading World Championships. Together, they own Spring: Cheer, Dance & Tumbling, the largest international instructional cheerleading company in the world. The Ottawa REDBLACKS Cheerleading and Dance Team support the Ottawa REDBLACKS both on and off the field. They participate in pre-game and half time shows, as well as, numerous community events, charity functions, and corporate appearances. They play an integral role in the game day experience and act as ambassadors for the organization. OTTAWA REDBLACKS The Ottawa REDBLACKS Cheerleading & Dance Team is a co-ed team made up of 50 members who have a background in cheerleading, dance, gymnastics, tumbling, and fitness. The cheer team and the dance team are separate entities working together to entertain fans at TD Place and in the community. IN THE COMMUNUNITY In spring of 2014, the Ottawa REDBLACKS launched a REDBLACKS School Program called, “Game Plan for Success!” which continues to be very well-received in the community. This is a goal-setting initiative aimed at inspiring students to set goals to achieve their dreams. The REDBLACKS players visit students and share their stories on the challenges they faced in their youth that lead them to achieve their dream of playing professional football. The Game Plan for Success is a fun and engaging school assembly that also touches on the meaning of team, anti-bullying, and self-esteem. 237 BIG JOE The Ottawa REDBLACKS mascot, “Big Joe” in English and “Grand Jos” in French, represents a well-known, prominent figure in both the English culture and in the French community. Big Joe was named after a fictional lumberjack character developed by the late Ottawa Valley storyteller, Bernie Bedore, and made famous in a song by Stompin’ Tom Connors. The character was inspired by the legendary Joseph Montferrand, a real life French-Canadian Outaouais logger and defender of Francophone rights in 1800s. OTTAWA REDBLACKS IN THE COMMUNITY Big Joe is heavily involved in the Ottawa-Gatineau community. He really reaches out to the younger fan base and makes many school visits throughout the season. He is a friendly and fun Ottawa Valley lumberjack who is great with kids. He enjoys traveling throughout the region and engaging with young football fans. Big Joe represents the boot-stomping, lumber jacking days and embodies the history of the lumber industry in our region. 238 Heading into their third CFL season, the Ottawa REDBLACKS will once again be counting on #RNation to add that extra energy and amazing atmosphere that has become the talk of the league over the past two seasons. As a shout out to the club’s one-of-a-kind fan base, the new REDBLACKS uniforms will also have a unique flare in the form of the #RNation name emblazoned on their pants. This means that for every REDBLACKS game, our fans will continue to be there every step of the way, in the stands and on the field. IN THE COMMUNUNITY OTTAWA REDBLACKS “The fans are the most important part of our organization and everything we do is made possible by their support,” said Jeff Hunt, President of Sports for the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group. “As a tribute to them, the players will carry RNation with them into each game. It’s a privilege for us to give them that recognition.” 239 OTTAWA REDBLACKS IN THE COMMUNITY THE COOKIE 240 THE COOKIE: A SYMBOL BEYOND A REDBLACKS TOUCHDOWN It’s become a popular tradition at Ottawa REDBLACKS games through the team’s first two seasons in the CFL. When the home team scores a touchdown at TD Place, the lumberjacks get to work sawing off a slice piece of the log in the home end zone after the fireworks explode to celebrate the score. That wood cookie, as it has become known over the past couple years, is stamped with the REDBLACKS logo and given, during an on-field celebration, to a worthy member of the community. Those who have received the coveted keepsake through 19 Ottawa home games to date have backgrounds and reasons for being honoured that are as diverse as the fans who pack into the stadium on a given game day. The REDBLACKS have honoured Dr. James Bell, a local cancer researcher whose treatment advancements could one day lead to a cure. Dave Smith, the restauranteur who has raised tens of millions of dollars for numerous important causes, including the Dave Smith Centre for Youth Addiction. Neil Doef, the teen hockey player who suffered a serious spinal cord injury during a hockey game last year, legendary 67’s coach/GM Brian Kilrea and the Max Keeping Foundation have all been honoured with a REDBLACKS cookie, while French Ambassador Nicolas Chapuis was given one as a show of solidarity following the terror attacks on Paris in November 2015. Ottawa cancer survivor Penny Thompson still speaks glowingly about what receiving the REDBLACKS cookie in front of a packed house on October 16 meant to her. Thompson was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2012 and bravely battled through treatment, the removal of lymph nodes, a double mastectomy and hysterectomy to prevent future disease growth.
