Practices
No Monday or Tuesday
practices for two weeks (no 12/24 or 25, 12/31 or 1/1). Both rinks will be
having public skating if the girls want to show their families and friends how
much they have learned this year.
Thursdays continue regular
schedule. If a coach decides to use less
than their regular slot, they should notify the other TGHA coaches so that ice
is utilized in the best manner possible.
"Monday only"
Initiation players are welcome to skate on Thursdays (12/27 and 1/3) during
this holiday time!
Monday January 7
Bring a Friend to Hockey
The TGHA leadership and
coaches will be on hand Monday January 7 for the 6:00-7:00 p.m. time slot at
The RINK. Initiation (and House and
Recreation) girls are encouraged to bring newcomers at any time of the year, but
this night will be an especially easy one for beginners to be welcomed. During
this time slot, we will have the NYSAHA equipment available for use that day
for newcomers, and the TGHA equipment is accessible for those we plan to sign
up for Half Season for Initiation, House or Recreation.
Half Season Initiation for 2008
This date also represents
the mid-point of the season so girls who are signed up for the first half of
the season can sign up for the second half for $60. See VP House Karen Muckstadt to tell her your
plans. Checks can be given to Karen or
mailed to TGHA,
Update on IYHA Recreation Hockey
Greetings Hockey families (IYHA and TGHA)
I am contacting you because I just volunteered to
coordinate Recreation Hockey. Thanks to
Rick Kuhar and Chris Camadella for getting the program off the ground this
season due to Joe Sullivan's retirement.
I invite all middle school and high school-age
players to skate in this fun-oriented, weekly program. If your child stopped playing team hockey in
recent years, they would probably love to rediscover the joys of getting out on
the ice again.
Rec hockey involves no checking or slap shots and
is open to skaters of all abilities. Ice
times are Mondays from 7:00 to 8:30 PM. at
Players can join the program for a pro-rata fee of
only $140.00.
I especially invite players to walk on and give the
program a try for only $15.00 per ice time.
I am open to suggestion regarding this program, so
please email me or call me at 273 3388 (o) if you have any compliments,
complaints or questions.
Cheers,
Walter Hang
