Member meeting and party

We have one member meeting a year. Please try to attend in person so you can hear what has been happening behind the scenes to make hockey happen in San Francisco and steer the future of your club.

Afterwards we'll have a paella dinner. Plummer John is providing some of the great yellow fin fish he caught and we'll have vegi options.
Invite your friends! If you have time before the meeting please come early to help with cooking.

Agenda and notes

Keeping SF R&P happy

We were going in early. Things mostly okay. latest is Don not happy that we take a while to get in. Need to use entire time we have. New director of aquatics got us pool time.

YMCA reduced to 1 practice/week

Threat of several canceled memberships put fire under them. Several members only join for hockey.
Proposal: King team goes to Y (using guest passes) and another night Y comes to King

Kids Hockey

Friday night normally has 10-14 kids each week. Some kids have been playing 2.5 years, they are getting too good for kids but not good enough for adults. HS program would be nice. Renaud put in plug for helping. Anyone can be coach and it's fun. Netherlands is doing age division tournament, but youngest group is ~18yo, our kids are too small.
Nationals in LA may have children's tournament.
Kids tournament in SF for youth with <2yrs experience, normally in May, but no solid plans yet. Canada normally sends ~15 kids.
Adults can do swim workout 7:30-8:30pm Friday.
There is requirement that children swim 4 laps, but Don asked as to take some kids that couldn't do it.
