The Planning Team has decided to change the format a little from recent years. We will no longer offer a  "Pregame Huddle", so all of our meetings will start at 7pm (with the exception of Thursday, September 25, which will begin @ 8P.  We will continue to leave the meeting open for "Postgame Huddle" to answer any questions you might have. 

We look forward to seeing all of you this pre-season.
