We're going to try the outdoor rink in Bridgeport this weekend (Mar 12). Trevor will post directions. I will definitely come out of we have at least 10 people so please post if you are 100% sure you'll be there.
LOL, Talk about out of shape....Jordo and I moved my downstairs fridge upstairs, my upstairs fridge downstairs (my wife's bright idea?), played ice hockey for an hour then road hockey....I'm surprised I didn't snap my spine and puke out both lungs as my heart exploded from my body like that poor SOB in Alien!!!!
The snow's melted so the rink looks great now. You can use the map at http://www.kcf.org/aboutus/location.html . Basically, take Bridge St. just past Lancaster (the Dollhouse), turn left on Bloomingdale Road and drive out to Bloomingdale. Go past the church and Simpsons Screen Print, turn right at the street before the ball diamonds, and the rink is behind the community center.
So far Eric, Jordo, Johnnie, and I are confirmed. Who else is coming out?
I'm not really feeling up to road hockey today...I think I'll skip it...and it looks like interest has dropped anyways. Hopefully with nicer weather coming we can get some better turn outs over the next few weeks but count myself and Jordo out today. Sorry!
Now that the better weather is coming I'll be swamped with yard work.....so much to do this spring removing trees, stumps, redoing two gardens, etc, etc.....we moved into a new house last summer..you know how it is!
I have to say I'm done until the fall....with the better weather approaching my weekends will be spent playing with the kids, doing yard work, and generally just getting hammered on my deck!!!
Hopefully in the fall we can get it rolling again...I was thinking maybe a small 'for fun' league with teams from Kit, Waterloo, etc???
You only need 4-5 per team might be doable?

Yep, me too.
I think I've finally recovered from LAST Sunday.
Damn, I'm out of shape!

I'm still feeling kinda ill, so I'll decide tomorrow if I'm coming.

Cancelled, I guess.
Maybe Mark will start up Brokeback, I mean Flag Football soon.
I'm in if we get enough for a game
Too bad this didn't take off better?
I know we could pull enough people out of their houses if this was a poker game - maybe we need a bookmaker at the rink to give people their fix!!

A friend, in london, mentioned to me that Lee Valley is selling poker tables with cards that are slightly magnitized so that you can play outside.
Hmm - deck, bbq, beer, poker - what else could you ask for (well except for the obvious)!
cool idea...knowing Lee Valley tho I'm sure the price is pretty steep!
likely they wouldn't last long but hey....if you want a quick SNG on a windy day you can!

Good research skills though!
