The Screech Owl (Latin name, Otus asio) is found in many parts of North America,
particularly in the United States but also in the north of Mexico and across the southern
part of Canada. It is a small owl, only seven to 10 inches long, and is recognized by the
reddish, brown and gray colors and telltale tufts over the ears. The call of this charming
bird is a mellow hoot or, more often, a quavering, eerie wail which is easy to imitate. It is
found in forests, farmland, towns and parks.

TEAM HISTORY
|
The Screech Owls were founded by Muck Munro and
Don Dillinger more years ago than they can remember.
Muck had returned to his home town of Tamarack,
where he had returned to work following a splendid junior
hockey career that was cut short by a severely broken leg
that did not set properly. He had played, briefly, on the
same line as Paul Henderson, who would go on to score the
most famous goal in Canadian hockey history.
Mr. Dillinger, a local building contractor, got
Muck back into the game as a coach. Mr. Dillinger
offered to serve as
manager. The Screech Owls would be a competitive peewee team,
open to both boys and girls in the small town of
Tamarack and surrounding area. The current team is the best they ever had.

The team logo is a ferocious screech owl
holding a hockey stick in its talons.
The Screech Owls have been widely praised
for their logo and are delighted when
other minor hockey teams call themselves
the Screech Owls as well.
