Please help our August 23rd 2014 Eagle Street Grille and Section 108 Fundraiser

From Susie Miller:


Do you know we will be entering our 9th season of play this fall? Yes, 9th season! When we started our registration fee was $150. $110 for MN Special Hockey and $40 for USA Hockey. This year registration is $160. $110 for MN Special Hockey and $50 USA Hockey. Our registration fee has only increased $10 since 2006. The main reason is our golf tournament. Eagle Street Grille and Section 108 season ticket holders team up to help us put on a very successful event. This year the tournament will take place on Saturday, August 23 at 1pm. In order for the event to be successful we need your help.

1. Volunteer - we need helpers from 8am - 8pm! Please email Me, Susie Miller(mnspecialhockey@gmail.com), your availability that day. We will then confirm your schedule. Please do so prior to August 13th as I need to move my daughter to college leaving on the 17th and would like to have this covered ahead of time.
2. Help recruit raffle prizes and auction items. If you have items you are able to donate please mail them or drop them off to Braemar Arena, 7501 Ikola Way, Edina 55439; Attn: Susie Miller
