Sauk Centre Youth Hockey Association

Our 2011-2012 Season,

It seems as though each year the Hockey season goes by much faster. Some of you feel it has gone by in a Blurr. It seems as we just started our Skaters on the ice a couple months ago. Here we are finishing up District play-offs, taking player head count, lining up Coaches and Reps for next year already.  Its great to have gotten some feedback from many of the players, such as "Why can't we keep playing?",  "I don't want hockey to be over with!" , "We are gonna miss them guys!" or "Will we be able to have the same coach next year?". Thats what Hockey is all about!!!! We all work together, the youngsters all play together and it turns out to be one large family of people!

I would like to say "Thank You!" to each and every Parent, for your volunteered hours which makes this a cost saving opportunity for these young people to enjoy Hockey! Also a huge "Thank You!" to all the Coaches, Reps, Refs and Board Members to make this a successful season for our Players! With that being said, we have some upcoming events for all of us to attend.

The Banquet date has been moved up to Sunday, March 18th at 1:00pm at Diamond Point Steakhouse Lounge. Chicken and Ham dinner will be served with all the fixings. Long Prairie PeeWees and Bantoms will join us. All families, please contact your Rep (Mike Bick, Scott Gilbertson, Ryan Sorenson or Mike Bailey), to let them know that you plan on coming and the number of people you wish to bring with. We will need a head count as to amount of food to prepare. Any one else willing to join us, please let us know.

The Annual SCM Youth Hockey meeting will be held on Sunday, March 25th at 4:00pm at the Sauk Centre Civic Arena . We would ask all parents to join us at the meeting. Many things for the upcoming season are discussed and decided upon. If you have an idea, bring it to the meeting. We also have the election of board members taking place. If you have an interest in becoming a board member, you or another member of the Association can nominate you. Not to be bashful, your involvement, is for the best interest of every player in our Assoc. 

P.S. Keep in mind, the "Gun Show" and "Ladies Nite Out" are coming up very soon!
