Roller hockey tournament postponed

Hello all, On account of the pending rain (and the advice from a friend who is a meteorologist at NOAA), we have decided that it is in everyone’s best interest to postpone the roller hockey tournament for now. A rain date will soon be scheduled. At the moment, the first weekend in June seems to be a strong contender. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused anyone and hope to have all the new details worked out soon. Thank you for your patience and understanding, -Marcello

After careful consideration, though, I do not believe this is the appropriate route to take in this instance. First of all, we have a significant overlap in participants from event to event and it is not right to ask you to constantly open up your wallets every …

Rest in peace, Captain. You were a true hero.
