Thursday Practice Schedule
Initiation and House are at Cass Park as previously announced 5:15-6:15 p.m.
Due to low interest in the Recreation program this fall, TGHA has cut back on
its ice times as a cost-saving and a new schedule begins tonight for 12U, 14U
and 19U. Good news that Dave Herrick was able to find another user for
our RINK slot for this season, and that all TGHA teams now use the same rink on
Thursdays...which can help build community and foster communication.
12U 6:15-7:15 p.m.
14U 7:00-8:15 p.m.
19U 7:45-9:00 p.m.

Players (and coaches) who are still signing up should seek out VP House Kathey MacQueen at Cass Park. The
process for registration begins at your computer registering with USA Hockey,
and includes completing paperwork and payment before going on the ice.

Read in the Cub Club News about the great ticket package available for women's
games at Cornell.
Cub Club News
Cub Club includes ALL new girls each year as well as all continuing girls whose
big sisters continue to play for the Cornell Big Red women's hockey team.
Wayde Whittaker has a special email list for Cub Club
announcements, but he knows he is still adding this year's newcomers so this
week's news is pasted in this TGHA All. We also want everyone to know
what a special part of the TGHA experience it is that we collaborate with
Cornell!
Join us for two exciting games this weekend at Lynah!
Cornell begins their League play Friday night at 7 when they take on the
Princeton Tigers in what promises to be another fast-paced, action packed, edge
of your seat contest! Those who made last weekends game against Robert Morris
know what I mean.
Then join us again Saturday at 4 when our Big Red Women take on Quinnipiac.
Your big sisters are counting on you to cheer them on to victory!
As always all Cub club members get in FREE, and for parents Coach Derraugh has put together an incredible season ticket
package! You get tickets to all 15 home contests for only $20!!! Normally a $90
value! Ticket packages are available at the door.
If you would like to be a stick girl or skate as the little bear between
periods let me know. These are two great opportunities for you to experience
first hand why Lynah is to this day considered one of
the best rinks in college hockey, whether its taking to the ice or joining
the girls in the locker room after a hard fought game, you owe it to yourself
to participate at least once. If you have any questions about what either
entails please call or email me.
We hope to see you all there! GO BIG RED!
Part 2:
Attention all new and current cub club members!
It's that time again. Time to begin another fun filled year with TGHA and
Cornell Womens Hockey!
Next Tuesday November 11th at 6pm we will have our annual Cub Club big sister
pairing ceremony at Cornells' Lynah
Rink. New members will get to meet their big sisters for the first time and
current members can reunite. Parents will want to bring their Cameras, and
girls please bring your helmets and skates so you can join in the on-ice
fun!(newer skaters may also want to wear pads to avoid banged up knees and elbows)
Please try to arrive as close to 6pm as possible so you are ready to go on the
ice at 6:30.
Don't worry about supper before you come as Pizza and drinks will be provided
by the Cornell Team.
Please RSVP to WMW9@cornell.edu or 327-1588 so we know how much food
to order.
See You soon,
Wayde Whittaker
Cub Club chair
Photo Days Next Week
If you didn't get a form, there will be blanks available at all photo sessions.
Monday 11/10 at The RINK
(Thursday only girls may skate on Monday to participate in this photo
session. We hope to also offer a January date.)
Arrive a few minutes early to allow time for individual photos and group ones
for Initiation, House and 12U
Tuesday 11/11 at Lynah
14U and 19U will start their practice at 7:45 p.m. with team shots on the ice
followed by individual ones.
Coffee Sales Reminder
TGHA is very fortunate to work with gimme coffee
every year. Note that you pay standard prices per lb of this great local product, but gimme
contributes to TGHA a generous portion thus sharing their profits with our
organization.
Forms can be downloaded from the web site. There's two order times...one
for Thanksgiving delivery and one for the December holidays.
