30 May 2011 / #media #people RE-BLOG: Max Keeping's Ties_ Starting today, every Monday I’m going to re-post an older article from the OttawaStart blog. This one appeared way back in January 2006 : _OttawaStart reader Rev. A. McKee asked: "Where does [ Max Keeping ](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Keeping) get his ties?"Max responded: > >[  ](http://ottawastart.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/470_ott_max_0912032_430241.jpg) Max's collection of ties comes from virtually everywhere: (kids) the Children's Miracle Network, Save the Children; (fashion) Vernini at St Laurent, Holt Renfrew; and some others are gifts from viewers. The Sens ties are from sensations, Montreal Airport gift shop, and a Toronto tie company which made some early in the life of the franchise (purchased by McGarry Funeral Home people). > >The ties generally get worn for awhile on air, and are then donated for Charity auction. > >The Ottawa Sun did a mini-profile of the ties last summer. > >Now go tie one on! > >_ Max _ > >** See also: ** Ottawa Media Guide
