Niagara Falls Sports Wall of Fame - Sir Harry Oakes Benefactor 1900 - 1970 Era The Oakes name is perpetuated in Niagara Falls in numerous ways. Oakes Garden Theatre, Oakes Drive, Oak Hall and Oakes Park all serve as reminders of this noted family, and particularly of Sir Harry Oakes, its most prominent member. Harry Oakes was born in the small town of Sangerville, Maine on December 23, 1874. He graduated with a liberal arts degree from Bowdoin College in 1896. Harry Oakes came to Canada in 1911 as a gold prospector and mining engineer and eventually became a self-made millionaire. In 1912, he struck it rich with his discovery of gold resulting in the Lakeshore Mine near Kirkland Lake. In the 1920s, Harry Oakes and his family located in Niagara Falls until 1934, when the family moved to the Bahamas. In 1939, Sir Harry Oakes was knighted by King George VI of England ; -

Niagara Falls Virtual Sports Wall of Fame - Frank Long Athlete Hockey 1900-1970 era Frank Long has made many contributions in the field of athletics as a player, coach and historian, which have allowed him to make a significant contribution to the development and enjoyment of sports in Niagara Falls. Frank started off his athletic achievements in 1938 with track and field, where he won a silver and a bronze medal at the COSSA district meet in St. Catharines. Frank moved on to the Ontario Track and Field Championship (OFSAA) in 1939, where he won a bronze medal in pole vault. Frank enjoyed playing many sports such as baseball and football, but his love of hockey led the way to some of his greatest accomplishments. Frank started off his hockey career with Niagara Falls, but was then offered a position on the first junior A team in St. Catharines, the Falcons. Frank scored the first St. Catharines junior A goal in the Garden City Arena, and the Falcons finished the season first place in their division. Frank played professional hockey in the American, East Coast, and Pacific Hockey Leagues from 1944- 1947. He came back to Ontario and was a key player on various Senior A and Senior B teams up until 1953. Frank Long used his many years of hockey experience and expertise to coach the Niagara Falls juvenile AAA team from 1972- 79. During the 1980’s Frank was an active member of the Niagara Falls Curling Club, and in 2006 Frank authored “A Century of Sports in Niagara Falls”. This book is a collection of many photos of local sports teams and players, covering twenty-one different sports and spanning a hundred years. Nearly 300 photos are included, and almost all of the players are identified. Frank Long is a dedicated man who has shown his commitment to sports throughout his entire life, including playing, coaching, and assembling a book about sports. Frank’s contributions to the community are vast ... -
