The MGHA Banquet will be held during Pride Week Festivities. We will be hosting the Twin Cities Gay Hockey Association (TCGHA) as well and playing both their developmental and competitive teams during the weekend. Please find our schedule of events below and visit frequently as we provide and update information.

We will also have information on volunteering as we will need to ask for volunteers to help with players at our booth and assisting with the sale of beverages. We'd like to keep the shifts as short as possible to ensure that everyone is able to have a good time and enjoy the festivities. More information coming soon. MGHA PRIDE WEEK SCHEDULE:

12:00 p.m. PRIDE PARADE. Hey Team, its almost time for the Madison Pride Parade. Our application is in for us to march!

A few of us met a couple of weeks ago after a Sunday game to discuss some of the logistics. The people that met were: Tim Foster, Bri Deyo, Cory Moll, Steve Stafford

Here is what we came up with so far:

Thanks to Tim Foster, we have a purple el camino that we will drive the parade route. And yes, or fabulous Tim/Daniella, will be perched on a throne in the back of the el camino, with a hockey stick for a septor! We'd like to inline skate around the car with our hockey sticks. We thought of throwing the little packets of skittles into the crowd, or better yet, sliding them into the crowd (lightly) with our hockey sticks. I would like to be able to count on many of you to march in the parade. It is on Sunday, July 22nd. Please e-mail me your names if you will be marching with us.

As more facts, and plans become available, I will keep everyone updated. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to e-mail me at: eterre@gmail.com

Thanks, Lisha Terre
