When the mayor of Cambridge reached out to Oliver Cornwall to decide how best to honour the City’s pride in the young SMJHL defenceman, the prospect of what exactly to name after him was a problem. With the arena already bearing the name of an all-time great, it was a little bit awkward as Oliver certainly had not earned that right this early on in his career.


Fortunately, puns are a national pastime in Britain, and City Council grabbed ahold of the opportunity. While agricultural output in the area is limited, the City decided that they could seize the opportunity to deliver a fun amenity to the citizens of the Cambridge Community. They all got to work, tilling the soil and mowing the patterns. Eventually the fruits of their labour was there for all to see with a giant corn maze erected just outside of town.

And with that, the community christened the Cornwall Cornwall.
