Captains practice fees are $100.00 down from $120.00 last year.  Payment and release forms are due before players can participate.

Program sponsors are being solicited.  Anyone with a suggestion for a new sponsor should let Scott Koopmeiners know.

Warm ups/team clothing will be handled by Coach Eric Johnson.  Neal Rowe and Anne Herold will assist with this process.  Parents want higher quality selections as last years warm ups did not last very long.

Cathedral Hockey has an over night trip to Roseau in mid January.  Two games will be played.  The BLC will pay for the player’s cost, hotel and food.

Volunteer list.

            As a Blue Line Club member, you can see why our Cathedral Boys Hockey team is so great as we have a tradition of players, parents and families coming together to make our team a winner both on and off the ice.  If we all share in the volunteer effort, all can enjoy the season. This list will need to be filled at the completion of our next BLC meeting.  Please begin to think about where you will be able to volunteer your time and talents.

Items of Discussion

Additional instruction for captain’s practice.  Scott Bukestad @ $500.00

                        Volunteers will run/monitor captain’s practice this was a paid position last year.

                        Purchase of  4 replacement jerseys to replace the seniors’ jerseys from the 07/08 season

                        Purchase additional practice time if requested.

Varsity and JV generally practice together.  Occasionally coaches need to spend more concentrated time with the varsity and this comes at the expenses of the JV as their practice time is reduced.  Buying additional time would give the JV players all of their practice time

In the past BLC purchased meals (sandwich, cookie, fruit) bus for the players, mangers and satiations

            Warm ups       

                        The BLC will pay $87.00 per player this year.

            Bus upgrades

If we choose to upgrade a bus, 1 hour of regular bus fee’s is paid by the school the rest of the costs are paid by the BLC.
