Updates June 4, 2010

The X


I want to take this time to thank everyone done at The X.  They were more than helpful today.  For anyone that missed it, we were on their Morning show with Tim Benz and Bob McLaughlin.  Ashley was dubbed the new "Hockey Hottie" and played a round of "Are You Smarter Than".  A video clip of that will be linked here soon.
We also now officially have our first items for auction.  A complete list of auction items will be given later in the summer.


Car Wash


The car wash will be held tomorrow at Altman's located on Old Clairtion (click here for directions).  The car wash will go from 11 AM to around 1 PM as long as the weather agrees with us.  All money made at the car wash will go towards the tournament.

Donations


Donations can be acceptable in any form, whether it be money, food, items we can raffle/auction, connections you have with various people, or even work you can put into helping the tournament be as good as possible.

Checks can be made payable to "Kevin Frenock Memorial Fund."


Questions and Contact


All question, concerns, team entries, etc can be asked via email at kjfhockey@gmail.com, or by phone via 412-445-2966, or 412-973-7632.  Phone numbers can receive voice mail and text messages in the event the call does not go through.

If you are interested in what we are doing please continue to visit our webpage as it will be updated as we get information.

We also have a Facebook Group, please invite your self if you plan on attending.

3rd Annual KJF Hockey Tournament

The 3rd Annual KJF Hockey Tournament is set for Saturday, August 7th, 2010. As of now we are looking for help and donations.
Help includes:
  • Getting companies and people to donate money. We have a letter with a letterhead you can use. The best way to do this is to go from business to business handing them out.
  • People to pass out flyers and advertise in any other way they can.
  • Getting items to be raffled off in a raffle
  • Getting sponsors for things like food and drinks.
  • We are looking for people who can get into contact with the Penguins. The ideal situation would be to get a player there, but anything including autographs, tickets and other memorabilia would help
  • We are trying to get 105.9 The X involved. Ideally we would want a DJ to play there at some point during the day, but again anything would help. Things like plugging us on the air, shirts, or other prizes that could give us. WDVE would also be good.
  • We probably still need more volunteer refs.
  • We are going to need people to work the clock through out the day.
  • We are in need of a PA system, and an announcer that can announce when teams are up and other messages throughout the day.
We also had our first meeting today. We will be having more throughout the summer.

If you have any other ideas or would like to help in any other way please contact Ashley at 412-4552966 or Dan at 412-973-7632 or email us at kjfhockey@gmail.com.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Teams

We will be playing 4 on 4 this year. We are still in early stages of planning, so I can not promise, nor guarantee anything at the moment. Try to shoot for at least 6 players and a goalie. This year we will be charging a flat fee per team instead of per player based on the assumption that every team should have about 6 skaters and a goalie. So this will keep your costs down, as well as allow more people to play. All ages are accepted, however please remember that the average player's age is between 18 and 25ish. If you have a team and want to reserve room you can follow these instructions:

Email the following to kjfhockey@gmail.com

Pick a captian(preferably the one emailing) so i can contact one person per team.

Make the Subject: HOCKEY TEAM
so that it is easy to pick out.

Copy the following and fill it in(the form assumes the captian is a player):

Team Name:
Team Color(if applicable):
Captain Name(first and last):
Captain Phone Number:
Captain Age:
Captain Number:

(copy and fill this out for each addition player.)

Player Name(first and last):
Player age:
Player number:


You can also sign up as a single if you can't find a team. Just use the "Player" form and make the email subject "HOCKEY SINGLE." I will do my best to get you on a team, but again I cannot make any promises.

We are typically in need of goalies at some point. If you are a goalie without a team use the "Player" form and make the email subject "HOCKEY GOALIE." You will be almost guaranteed a game.
