The 2012 season is starting, and events are being added to the official MNSH calendar. The list includes an event this week and a few in weeks to come. As in past seasons news will be posted here; Facebook members should be sure to "like" the Minnesota Special Hockey Facebook page.

First up is the Hendrickson Foundation Inaugural Fundraiser Friday 9/9 in Lakeville:

Minnesota Disabled Hockey has a great new opportunity for our organization to help raise funds for all our programs. The Hendrickson family (Darby Hendrickson and his father Larry) have formed a foundation with the primary purpose being to support Minnesota Disabled Hockey. They will be hosting their first fundraising event on Friday, September 9 .

It is a golf tournament at Crystal Lake Golf Club in Lakeville, MN.The Hendrickson Foundation has asked us to help support the tournament by passing on the attached flyer to any friends and family who would be interested in playing in the event.  In addition, if you have any contacts who would be interested in sponsoring the event or providing silent auction items please share the attached sponsor letter with them.

Please contact Suzy Lindeberg, MN Special Hockey Board Member, if you have any questions regarding the event at slindeberg@comcast.net. Please help to support the Hendrickson Family Foundation raise funds for Minnesota Disabled Hockey.  This is a huge new opportunity for our programs! Thank you.

On September 30th we will have Disabled Hockey Night at the Wild game -- a fun time and a way to raise money for Special Hockey by selling programs. There will be skating between periods.

The season really starts with an Open Skate at Mariucci arena on October 16th. We should also be getting registration information in the next 2-3 weeks.

More information to come as we get closer to the Wild game ...
