| Varsity Pizza Fundraiser Your SYHA Varsity team is conducting a fundraiser in an effort to offset a number of team costs we have incurred throughout the year. Some of these costs have included team equipment (white board, additional water bottles for every player), internet webcasts of various home games, Senior Night appreciation and gifts, funding for league programs, and our year-end team gathering. Our fundraiser involves pre-selling pizzas that will then be assembled and delivered, by Varsity team representatives, directly to your homes on February 6th. Why February 6th, you ask? Because February 7th is Super Bowl Sunday, and what better way to feed a hungry Super Bowl crowd than with a bunch of delicious pizzas! Most teams have typically ordered pizzas from somewhere to have team gatherings in the past, why not plan ahead now and consider supporting this internal association fundraiser and order your pizzas from the Varsity team? These pizzas can be frozen for use later so stock up! We deliver them to your door, and all you have to do is pop them in the oven and enjoy. All pizzas are 12" single topping (Pepperoni, Sausage, or Cheese) and sell for $6.00 each or order 3 or more pizzas for just $5.00 each. Click HERE for the fundraiser flyer. The first page gives the particulars of the fundraiser and the second page in this file is the actual order form that can be filled out to place your order. The Varsity team will be manning a table at the rink prior to practice each Monday and Thursday night from 6 to 7 pm beginning this Thursday January 14th until Thursday February 4th to allow you to place your orders while at the rink. We have challenged each of our Varsity players to sell 7 pizzas each, so don't be surprised if one of them asks you about purchasing pizzas as you enter the rink! We are also selling these pizzas to friends, family, neighbors, or whomever wants to enjoy a delicious pizza with all proceeds offsetting the activities and expenses of the Varsity team. So if you know anyone outside the association who desires to purchase a pizza for their Super Bowl party or for any time just provide them the attached flier and they can fill it out and e mail it to jwherley@varsitycontractors.com to place their order. (However, keep in mind we need to be able to deliver these in a reasonable distance from players homes as it is not economical for us to deliver an extended distance. However, the Varsity team has representatives from 10 area high schools so we are well dispersed throughout the Springfield and surrounding area for delivery purposes.) Coach Jim Wherley |
| SYHA Night at the MSU Game February 12, 7:00 pm Mark your calendars for SYHA night at MSU. The MSU Bears take on the Texas Longhorns for the first time on home ice. This is anticipated to be THE game of the season, so please be aware that MSU is expecting a complete sellout crowd. That said, SYHA has reserved 100 seats on hold for our parents to buy at a discounted rate of $6, and all SYHA players wearing their game jersey will be given a free general admission ticket. Please see your coaches/Team Managers for tickets. All payments and unused tickets must be submitted to SYHA before 2/8. |
