If you haven’t sent in availability for March, please shoot that to me as soon as you can. We have the Country & Western Tournaments in town March 2-4 and again March 16-18.

Over the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th we have over 80 games at Centennial and A-Game, so there will be plenty of games to go around.

Here’s the breakdown at each rink.

Friday: Centennial – 11 games | A-Game – 12 games

Saturday: Centennial – 17 games | A-Game – 19 games

Sunday: Centennial – 14 games | A-Game – 15 games

As much as you want to skate, you will be able to.

So send in availability as soon as you can. Thanks everyone.

Our good friend and TAIHO Secretary Mike Rogers is currently in the Police Academy. We miss seeing him out on the ice, but for now, we’ll have to settle with seeing him at his new job.

Ok, so let’s play a round of “Where’s Mike Rogers?” Five points if you can find him.

For all those officials who need a seminar to complete your registration, we will be having a seminar in Nashville at:

A-Game Sportsplex on Tuesday January 10th at 5pm.

I must impress upon and request that any who plan to attend the seminar please, PLEASE register at Southeastrefs.org prior to the seminar date. We want to speed the process of getting the information to Colorado Springs as quickly as is possible. Registering at Southeastrefs.org will help ensure that the process goes quickly and will help get your patch mailed to you all the more quickly as well.

Please register there as soon as you can.

If you are unable to attend on the 10th, there will also be one in Atlanta on January 7th.

Just a quick post to let everyone know that one of our own is in Alberta working with the Russian…., sorry, I mean Latvian U20′s at the 2012 IIHF U20 World Championships. They are being held Calgary & Edmonton, Canada, so if you’ve skated games with Karlis, you probably know that if he’s in Canada, he’s probably wearing 5 sweatshirts and 4 gloves on each hand.

Congrats Karlis!!

Now let’s play ‘Where’s Karlis’!!

This is an amazing video. Apparently it was a game in Russia, I think that’s where Karlis is from….

Please watch it, then laugh. So amazing.

Schedule has been updated.

Tons of games this month. I’m filling the games this week so make sure you’ve sent in your availability. Oct 21-23 is a big weekend.

Thanks everyone.
