  • Fall 2010 Newsletter Dear Friends of Penn Ice Hockey
    From the Alumni Board... Fall 2010 Newsletter Dear Friends of Penn Ice Hockey: I hope you’ve had a relaxing summer and have spent plenty of time with family and friends. If you can believe it, fall is already here and the new Penn Hockey season is just around the corner. The Ice Hockey Board is now entering its third year, and I’m excited about how we plan to support the team this upcoming season. The Alumni Relations Committee, chaired by Whit Matthews C’02, already has plans in progress for our annual Homecoming game on October 30th. In addition, there are plans to host alumni gatherings in New York City on November 21st and in Boston on January 21st to coincide with two road trips the team has planned. The Mentoring Committee, chaired by John Rooney W’77, will continue building professional relationships between current student-athletes and alumni. If you wish to help with these efforts, we would like you to join the Penn Hockey Alumni Group that has been created on LinkedIn. We encourage all of our alumni to visit the Penn Athletics site and sign-up for PAMNet, a social networking site dedicated exclusively to Penn Athletics which will link both current and former athletes. The Development Committee, chaired by Craig White WEV’02, will look to further increase the financial support provided to the program. Our past fundraising efforts have helped to fund special projects such as renovating the team’s locker room at the Class of 1923 Ice Rink. This year we are focused on raising funds that will reduce player dues, secure prime practice ice-slots, and increase the stipend available to the coaching staff.
