Our Alexandria Muskies hosted hockey jamboree is coming up FAST. It’s on our calendar Saturday December 27 and 28:
For a number of years running we have had an excellent post-holiday 2-day hockey event in Alexandria. Our friends with the Muskies host a 2-day jamboree-style festival. What that means is we divide our athletes up into levels that allow them to skate to their ability and have an appropriate amount of puck touches while getting to know other players from across the league.
The hockey blocks are 12:00 to 2:15 on Saturday, and 12:45 to 2:45 on Sunday, which gets everyone home at a decent hour. We block the time so no one gets too tired or loses interest. It is a blast, both at the arena, and at the Holiday Inn Alexandria where everyone swims, hangs out, and enjoys good bonding time.
We've arranged a block of rooms at the Holiday Inn at the following prices:
Standard Rooms = $109.99 plus tax
King Rooms = $119.99 plus tax
Recreation Area Rooms = $129.99 plus taxHoliday Inn, Alexandria, MN
5637 State Highway 29, Alexandria, MN 56308
(320) 763-6577If you plan on attending, get your room booked ASAP. There are a limited number of rooms. The block is reserved under MN Special Hockey.
Players... we would like an idea of how many players are attending, this will help us better organize the event. Please RSVP to Jane Cashin at jocashin@comcast.net if you are planning on attending.
Coaches/Volunteers... if you are attending and want to help, please contact Dana to let him know (dthiede@kare.gannett.com).
