Skate rentals will be provided if you don’t have your Our next “Come Try Ringette” event own. Sticks will also be provided. We would like to thank Carter Haakenson, our Ice Scheduler for the past four seasons. Carter has chosen to take a step back this season. Thank you Carter for your all your years of service. We will also be sorry to see Annette Lebus and Tanya Braithwaite leave our executive this season. We would like to officially welcome Lynette Lacasse to the executive. Though Lynette assumed the position of Ways and Means that was left vacant at last year’s AGM, her position was made official this year. Ways and Means operate as a committee this season and though Lynette will head the committee, Joe Campisi and Rod Keleny have volunteered to take on the Sponsorship portion of Ways and Means. We would like welcome Mike Bellsmith as our new Ice Scheduler and Mitch Schwartz as our new Director of Coaching. Both are new to the executive but neither are new to volunteering in our association. Welcome Mike and Mitch. We’re looking forward to a great year !

Reports say that the improvement in the Bunny players this season is remarkable. May Day Parade In order to promote our “Come Try Ringette” event and get our association out in the community, Fraser Valley Ringette will be participating in the Fort Langley May Day Parade. The parade will be on Monday, May 19, 2008 at 11:00 am. This year the parade will start at the Lions Hall and end at the National Historic Site. Players can walk or Roller Blade.

President’s Cup We were starting to get a little nervous that there wouldn’t be a year end tournament for the Novice Division this season. In February Coquilam/Port Moody Ringette association came to the rescue and resurrected their Teddy Bear Tournament. All three of our Novice teams rushed to enter, as did many other associations. The players had a great time showcasing their talent and showing their parents and coaches how much they improved over the year. Please come out and join us!
