Another terrific season has come to a successful conclusion.

We'll have a slide show for the end of season banquet (John Faughnan's pictures are in our online photo albums). This post is to help organize the show, John will edit it as we finalize things.
We'd like more people to contribute photos and we'd like a projector.
What we've got:
John will have to help with coaching and working with Tim and Ben, so we need to work on timing.

MN SH promotion event Friday March 13 - volunteers needed
From Toni B: On Friday, March 13th, Minnesota Hockey has invited us to share their booth, hand out hockey items and share our story about Minnesota Special Hockey. The booth needs to be manned from 12 noon to 6pm, and we are looking for players and family members who will wear their jerseys and share their stories.
We will have a video that discusses disabled hockey, but the personal stories and presence are always the best.
Please e-mail Toni Boelter at tonib@dakcom.org and let me know what time you can be there, your names and how many people will be joining you. This will take place at the River Center the same time the boys state hockey tourney is going on. Thank you in advance! Toni Boelter
