Operational and Policy Governance are clearly understood. The Board of Directors and Members have adapted well. Again, I stress how pleased I am to work with a team striving to improve our organization and game. The Board recognizes that hockey is a passion with high expectations from our country. The mandatory Initiation Program is experiencing some concern in a few areas; however, I have been impressed with the progress and attitude of the Members actively involved in promoting the value of this program. It is pleasant to receive compliments supporting the Board for this initiative. It is difficult to be critical of a program that works on improvement and develops skills as well as incorporating fun in the game.

Not only have we concentrated on governance, but we also continue to examine the rules and regulations that are necessary to provide and promote fun, safety and skill development. We must offer programs that respect those who play, coach, and officiate, as well as the many others involved both on and off the ice - our wonderful volunteers.
