"I laced up my first pair of skates at age five in 1966 -- OK my Dad laced them up -- I've played travel hockey since I was a kid and continue to play competitively as an adult to this day.  I've coached at many levels of the game.  In my 44 years this is the single most rewarding experience I have had as a player and coach.  I was with my boys, my friends and their boys.  We all had the time of our lives.  I suspect that it could only be surpassed by our experience when we all attend next year.  Troy, thanks for the memories.  Keep up the great work  What you are doing for kids and their moms and dads is IMPORTANT!"  -Jerry, Dane and Jack Reinhart

"These coaches can talk to kids - thank goodness!  I think that they also have a healthy and realistic notion of what kids and parents can and should do!"  -Neil and Benjamin Karbank
