Congratulations Genna, Congratulations Alyssa!

Let's take a minutes to wish good luck and have fun to Genna Phelan and Alyssa Ferguson, heading to St. John's Nov 10th representing Hockey PEI...we hope they take the rain with them!

A change in this week's plan: there will NOT be a fitness session on Thursday, 11 November, due to Remembrance Day and the exams that some of you are writing this week.

Saturday, 13 November: practice at 9:10, off-ice fitness 10:30-11:30 (be prepared for indoor and outdoor!) and chili and biscuits (don't worry Mel, we'll find something else for you!) at Chris and Robyn's parents place 11:35-12:30. As you can tell by the timeline, Mom and Dad live quite close to the rink, we could run there.....wait a minute, that's a good idea!

Parents are invited to the chow down, (fitness too, if you think they can handle it!) or can drop you off at the rink and pick you up at Aikens'.

Aiken's house: 54 Andrews Drive (Andrews Dr. is directly across from Castle building center which is on Route 2 as you leave Kensington heading towards Charlottetown.)

Have a great week!

Hallowe'en Tricks and Treats

Great job ladies who were involved in the exhibition game today against the UPEI Jr Varsity team. A strong performance, consistent effort throughout the game. Your fitness levels were clearly demonstrated, kudos to the off-ice work you've put in.

Fitness Thursday evening 7pm, see you then!

'Twas the week before ACC...

Hi All,

Thanks for the participation in the Run for the Cure on Sunday. If you check the front page of The Guardian, you should be able to see Hayden running her confident stride - the forest green shirt in the sea of white!

Just a few reminders - we have a team meeting Tuesday, 05 October at Stonepark, 7pm. Please bring your log books - with paper to write on, and a writing utensil (that means pen or pencil). We'll be going over some forecheck, breakouts, and power play / penalty kill. We're also going to do a little mental training work.

Please take the time this week to do a skate sharpening, (check the rivets too!) and an equipment check. Make sure everything is in working order!

I've only received a few emails with your picks for captain/assistant captains (or "cappy's" as Nicole says). Please send that along tout suite. (Francais for "now").

For those of you who forget:
Friday: 11am practice (be there for 10, picture before hand, do your hair!)
5:30pm game vs. NL

Saturday: 11:45am practice
8:00pm game vs. NS

Sunday: 2:30 game vs. NB

Monday: 9am or 12pm

If you have any questions, rlmacdonald@edu.pe.ca

See you Tuesday!

Run for the Cure

After practice (9:45-11:15) head down to the Delta Hotel to pick up your registration package (you can register there too, if you haven't already). We'll meet at Confederation Landing Park at 1:15. The run is at 2pm.

Please wear your green Hockey PEI t'shirts for the run.

Ready for the Bridge!

Hope everyone is mentally prepared for Sunday's run on the Confederation Bridge - Sarah, Kristy, Emily V, and Shannon, I know you're doing a long run tomorrow to celebrate with us, right?

We'll meet in the parking lot in Borden (on Dickie Road) tomorrow at 5:50-6am. If you are unable to find us, hop on a shuttle to get across the bridge, we'll see you over there:)

Make sure you are physically prepared - well hydrated and fed!

Can't wait! See you all there!
