THANK YOU for all the fabulous treats last night!  It made the evening a whole lot "sweeter". :0)  Great to see everyone!  We all are excited to get the season underway!  Go Jackets!

Eveyone is asked to bring a treat/dessert items to share at the meeting on Monday, August 1st.  Just a small treat, not for our total numbers, just a dozen (12) as we do when making treats during the season.  This will provide a variety to pick from.  Coaches will provide drinks.  Perhaps the sugar will keep us all alert during concussion training :0)..........or just listening to Coach Turch a little nicer. ;0)
