Room, Lynah Rink
Thanks
re Open House
Thanks to all
the TGHA Board members and to Becky Waddle Cameron and Tony Eisenhut
who lead the on-ice activities on Monday with help from girls from the 12U, 14U
and 19U teams. It was a great crowd of 50 girls from across our
association (which numbers close to 100 when everyone is registered) who had
the chance to meet and have fun together!
It's Not
Too Late
TGHA has 'rolling
registration' for Initiation and House through the first weeks of the
season. We also register girls who join for half season starting at the
beginning of January. Let us know what we can do to help interested girls
get the equipment they need and the paperwork that is necessary to participate.
Registrar Cathy
Long will be at Monday's RINK practice Nov. 3 or she can be reached via cel3@cornell.
Photo Nights
Forms will soon
be distributed for TGHA's two Photo Nights with a
professional photographer who does individual and group shots in time for
holiday cards/gifts. Sunset Photo will be with us Mon Nov 10 and Tues Nov
11. Thursday only girls are welcome to come on Nov 10 (or there will be
another session in January on a Thursday for those who miss these dates).

2008 gimme! COFFEE FUNDRAISER
Player Order
Packets are being distributed Oct. 30 and Nov. 3
Here's how it
works:
gimme! Coffee’s gourmet coffee beans come
in 1 pound bags which we sell at gimme! retail prices. The cost to TGHA is their wholesale price.
TGHA keeps the difference… our fundraising
potential is GREAT!!! Ten varieties have been selected from previous season’s top selling roasts.
Players receive an order packet from team managers (or fundraising contact person
for your team or for Initiation/House) or download extra forms from the web at:
www.ithacagirlshock
Players collect
orders and return the order summary sheet and payment to team managers by the
following dates:
First Order – for Thanksgiving:
Orders in by Monday, Nov 10, coffee delivered Monday, Nov 17
(In time for Thanksgiving gifts)
Second Order – for Winter Holidays:
Orders in by Monday, Dec 1, coffee delivered Monday, Dec 8
(In time for the winter holidays)
***Payment is due when the order is placed. Checks made
payable to: TGHA. When you are preparing your coffee order form, please put the
player's team and name on the order forms. Coffee will be delivered
the following Monday or Tuesday at practice.
It is important that every player contribute to our
fundraising effort. TGHA strives to keep our fees as low as possible, and
relies on fundraising to cover some of our costs as well as provide player
scholarships and equipment for loan.
Prizes awarded to the top 3 sellers in the association.
Thank you,
2008 TGHA gimme! Coffee Fundraiser Coordinators
Liz Wood and Barbara Horton
PS We don't have a lot of other fundraisers during the
season. This one is a mainstay since coffee is such a popular item and
makes great gifts!
