Buffalo Update

Parents and players, some info on the Buffalo trip:

• Charter bus will leave from the athletes entrance around 2:00, trying to get an exact time when the guys will be let out of school.
• We will be stopping in Watertown for a meal at the Salmon Run Mall
• We plan on arrival in Buffalo at the Harbor Center Marriott sometime between 9:00 and 10:00.
• On Friday we will do some sort of team function in the morning and have a practice sometime in the afternoon. 
• On Friday night, we will be attending the Tournament Banquet for all 8 teams. A full program is planned. I have asked the guys to wear coat and tie to the event. We will of course take pictures and tweet them back for all. 
• On Saturday we will have breakfast and lunch at the Hotel prior to the game. 
• The 3:00 game will be Skaneatles and Pelham, our potential opponents for Sunday
• Our gametime is 5:15 vs. Kenmore East.
• Players should bring shirt and tie for for functions at the rink as well as a sport coat and tie for the banquet. Probably some sweatpants and a sweatshirt (comfy clothes for our down time.) Casual dress for the bus.
• Players should have cash for snacks, souvenirs, etc. Last year there was nice commemorative shirts, sweats, hats, for sale at the rink that you may want to get. 
• My daughter Lorissa has set up Twitter and Facebook accounts so we can share this adventure with all our friends and family.
• Thanks to all who are stocking the bus and providing the food for our send off Wed. night.
• Special thanks to Sean Donovan and the Police Hockey Tournament for his generous contribution.
• I know the guys are very excited to get to Buffalo and represent their school, families and community. 
• I will keep you updated with any changes or other news.
