Cold Forecast for Thursday

While we thought the last two Thursdays were cold, tomorrow's predictions are even more frigid.  Several of the TGHA coaches conferred today and they would like to make this announcement:

"The weather forecast for tomorrow evening warns of extreme cold and wind chill. Because weather conditions can change quickly in Central New York, we will make a decision by noon tomorrow whether practices will be held tomorrow evening at Cass Park. If the decision is made to cancel, it will be for TGHA as a whole."
