"Founded by the National Hockey League and the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association on September 10, 1943 – Kingston’s International Hockey Hall of Fame and Museum is the “Original Hockey Hall of Fame” and the oldest sports hall of fame in Canada. Captain James T. Sutherland of Kingston spearheaded the bid to bring the Hockey Hall of Fame to Kingston and was inducted into the hall in 1947 – one of the first forty members inducted into the hall during the Kingston-era. The Original Hall of Fame is proudly located in Kingston, Ontario."

"No need to drive to Toronto to get a little piece of hockey’s history. Fittingly located on the second floor of the Invista Centre, The Original Hockey Hall of Fame is filled with a ton of interesting facts and artifacts. The best part is the focus on Kingston-born legends like Doug Gilmour and Jayna Hefford."

"Kathleen Hall, 11 Medical Quadrangle This space is a gem for researchers and acts as a museum for specific topics you might be interested in. If you’ve never been to the Archives before, bring a piece of photo ID and be prepared to fill out a piece of paper to create a membership card before you begin browsing. A museum for researchers and anyone wanting to learn more about the history of Kingston."

"Old Faithful, $7.99 (includes coffee): Two eggs, bacon or sausage, homefries and toast. Located in the west end on Princess east of Bayridge drive and in the east end near Division and the 401, Fardella’s is home to many treats. During a visit to the west end location, I order directly from the counter and watch as they fry up potatoes and eggs at lightning speed."

"Fardella’s is a home-style coffee shop specializing in coffee, baked goods, and tasty meals. The cafe is family-owned and operated which makes it perfect for families with kids. Fardella’s menu offers all-day breakfast, salads, comfort foods, meal deals, pasta dishes, specials, and more."
