REMINDER: Annual Riccardi Tournament this Saturday, June 18

Posted on June 14, 2011

Updated Schedule

This year the Annual Riccardi Tournament will be held on Saturday, June 18 (rain date Sunday, June 19). This event is held to honor the memory of Tony Riccardi, a coach and player of EFRH. Proceeds in the past have been donated to the Children's Home in Poughkeepsie and also for the purchase of a defibrillator for the rink. This year, with the Riccardi family's approval, we will be raising money toward the purchase of a new scoreboard. The tournament schedule has been changed. Please see the updates below and also on the schedule.

Participants are asked to donate $5, which will be collected by the coaches at the tournament. They will receive a ticket for a hot dog, snack & drink.

Since this is our major fundraising event for the year, concessions and EFRH branded items will be on sale.

Donations and Volunteers Needed

Hot dogs, buns and a limited amount of beverages have been donated by local businesses and friends of our league. Please help us collect more beverage and snack donations.

A minimum of 10 volunteers are needed to help set up, cook, manage tickets, sell items, coordinate games and clean up. If you can collect any donations, or would like to volunteer your time, please contact Colleen Croce (events@efrhl.com) no later than June 10.
