HEAD COACH NORTHERN
LAKES
I come to Northern Lakes with 26 years of coaching experience. I spent a better part of that coaching experience under Curt Giles, former North Star and current HC at Edina High School. I went on to coach at JFK High School in Bloomington and was recently the HC at Hopkins High School in Minnetonka. I took a chance and came up to the area to teach and coach boys hockey. I am excited for the opportunity to work with these kids; it is my goal to take this program to the next level. My staff and I are excited for what these kids have to bring to the table and can’t wait to get the season started.

THE BLUE LINE CLUB
The Blue Line Club (BLC) is the booster club for our boys high school hockey team. The BLC has been supporting boys high school hockey since the co-op was created with Aitkin, CrosbyIronton, Pequot Lakes and Pine River-Backus schools in 1999. We are a volunteer run, nonprofit organization that operates year-round to help provide an opportunity for high school aged boys in our communities to play hockey after they have aged out of the youth association. In order to provide affordable opportunities for our boys, we host a number of fundraising events. Highlights of our fundraising efforts for the 2022-23 season include:
• 7th Annual Beer and Wine tasting event held at Maucier i’s in Crosslake. The event includes beer/wine tasting provided by Bar Stock Liquors, food provided by Maucieri’s, a silent auction and a live auction. This is one of our largest fundraising events!
• Ad sales for this program. This wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of our local businesses!
• Pancake breakfast fundraiser with the Pelican Lakes Conservation Club. This was our second year serving up pancakes and it was another great success!
Our fundraising dollars are spent on things such as: player equipment, pre-season ice time, jerseys, away game meals, coach busses for away games, team building opportunities, senior player recognition, team apparel, and more. Because of your ongoing commitment to our boys, they are given the opportunity to play the sport they love. If you have specific questions about how our funds are being used, or if you would like further information on how to continue your support, please don’t hesitate to email us at nlhockeyblc@gmail.com.
THANK YOU, AGAIN, TO ALL OF OUR GREAT SUPPORTERS!!!
