Please the schedules below for warm-up and tryout information for the 2010-11 season.
The Inver Grove Heights Hockey Association now has pull-tabs and bar bingo at both Majors Sports Cafe (5639 Bishop Avenue, www.majorssportscafe.com) and the Bierstube (6434 Cahill Avenue East,www.thebierstube.com).
The IGHHA will charge a late fee of $25 to returning players who register after August 16th as it is critical that we are able to appropriately determine the number of teams, players per team and levels of play in a timely manner. If you cannot attend registration but wish to avoid this fee, please contact Shane Peterson, Registration Coordinator (ightourney@yahoo.com), prior to registration.
Thank you,

Seeking to get more association members involved in volunteer opportunities in the coming season, the IGHHA Board has approved a new volunteer fee and hour structure.
Starting with registration in August, each family will make a $200 volunteer deposit, which will be returned at the end of the season if the required number of volunteer hours are filled. Association members will be required to fill 14 hours of volunteer time if they have one child enrolled in IGHHA, and seven additional hours for each additional child enrolled. So, for example, a family with three children in hockey will be required to fill 28 volunteer hours.
With exciting upcoming events like tournaments, hockey pictures, bar bingo and running the arena concession stand, there are plenty of chances to fill volunteer hours. The association is also developing an on-line sign-up sheet, which will make it easier to find and sign up for your needed volunteer hours.
This year we will once again be selling raffle tickets for our yearly fund-raiser. Each family will receive only ONE book of ten tickets. The cost of each ticket is $10 for a total book value of $100. You will receive your tickets at registration this year. You will also need to pay for your tickets at registration. Prepaying for the tickets at registration will eliminate the collection of money in December. Ticket stubs will be due by December 15th or sooner. We will have a drop box available at the concession stand for families to get rid their tickets as soon as they sell them. Due to gambling regulations ALL raffle stubs need to be returned. Since you are pre-paying for your tickets you will be keeping the money that you collect as you sell the tickets. If you would like to sell more tickets please let me know.
If you have any question, comments or concerns please fell free to contact me at 651-365-7889 or e-mail me at steelees@comcast.net .
