Request for Spare Hockey Equipment
As members upgrade or find unused
equipment at home, NRYHA would like to ask that you
consider bringing it to the rink as a donation to be
used by other members or for our G.O.A.L. program next
year. Anyone willing to contribute may bring
equipment to the Concessions window or Zamboni room.
Please contact
Brian Olson at 715-497-2389
or Larry
Erickson at 715-246-6031
with any questions.
Thanks for your assistance in
continuing to make NRYHA hockey affordable to everyone!

Outside Rink Update
Beginning the week of January 3rd
teams will begin using the outside rink for additional
practices. Our lease with the City allows NRYHA to
have exclusivity over it from 5 – 9 on Mondays through
Thursdays as long as the time has been reserved (as will
be indicated on a calendar board next to the Zamboni
room AND here on the Rink Schedule).
Managers will be communicating
schedules to individual teams, but anyone planning to
play pick-up hockey should be sure to check the schedule
beforehand. Simply
click on the Rink Schedule above and scroll down past
the inside rink to see if time has been booked.
Please note that if a team is
practicing, the rink is closed to the public.

Calling all Pucks!
So far this season the Association has had at least two
hundred pucks go missing. At about $1 each...it
becomes a significant expense by the end of the season.
As such we'd like to institute a puck amnesty program.
Please have everyone in your family check car trunks,
hockey bags, boxes in the garage, pockets etc and bring
any extras you might have collected over the years back
to the rink. Feel free to drop them off by the zamboni
room or Concessions window....no questions asked, no
lectures, no dirty looks.

USA Hockey H1N1 Guidelines
Although NRYHA has already required
all players to bring their own water bottles (and
have them explicitly identified) for the 2009-2010
season, there are some additional steps that USA Hockey
has recommended (and that NRYHA has adopted).

Check with Your Employer on Volunteer Matching!
Many employers will provide a monetary gift to eligible 501
(c)(3) non-profit groups if their employees volunteer for a
specific number of hours. Check with your employer to see
if you'd be eligible to have a donation made to NRYHA.
Please contact
