Minnesota Owls Hockey Housing Request

Hello everyone,

Well, it's already that time of year again and the Minnesota Owls are looking to place roughly 17 players into housing for the 2009 - 2010 hockey season. We've got players from all over the country again this year including California, Florida, Arizona and Michigan.

Just to refresh your memory, the host family receives $300 per month, per player. The host family provides a room and a bed for the player and must provide groceries for the player to make meals for himself. Please see the attachment for more detailed information.

The tryouts are being held August 21st - 23rd, and practice starts on August 24th. Some of the players will stay immediately after tryouts but some may plan to go home for the Labor Day weekend so housing will be needed sometime between the dates of August 21 - September 8th, depending on the player. The season wraps up sometime in March, depending on how well the Owls do in the playoffs and if they make it to Nationals.

We will be having a housing meeting on August 18 @ 7 PM, in the conference room at the Isanti Ice Arena. If you still have questions or concerns, this would be a great time to meet up with us and get those answers. We will be going over different ways to make the experience go well for both the families and the players. Please plan to attend if you have ever considered hosting a player.



Thank You,
