[cuelizabeth]

For anyone making winter travel plans, here's info on a Cornell Hockey vacation destination in the Sunshine State:

Cornell Hockey will be competing in the 9th Everblades Classic Hockey Tournament near Naples, FL again this December.

This year's contenders are Cornell, Maine, Colgate and St. Cloud State.
Games are at 4:05 PM and 7:35 PM each day.

Saturday, December 27: Cornell takes on St. Cloud State at 7:35 PM
Sunday, December 28: Finals at 7:35 PM, Consolation Game at 4:05 PM

Tickets start at $17 per day and include access to both games on one day.

During the games you can meet other Cornellians in the Big Red Hospitality area in the TIB Terrace, above section 115.  Cash bar and light refreshments will be served.

We'll be selling Cornell items and raffling off great prizes, including 2 hockey sticks signed by the 2008/2009 Men's Ice Hockey Team.

The coaches and team join Big Red fans in the hospitality area following the games on each day.

Hope to see you there!

This is an awesome event, both the hockey games and the Cornell hospitality. We've gone just about every other year this decade and always enjoyed it. It's a little better in years when a big midwestern team (with lots of snowbird alumni) plays, such as Notre Dame or Ohio State, but there are good crowds in other years, too.

Thanks for the info.

After attending back in 2003(?), I look forward to potentially returning this year. Will be in Florida over Christmas week; just not sure yet if that's going to include a jaunt over to the Gulf Coast.

Thanks for the info but probably not this year.  UND is eating up a fair amount of my travel budget, for better or for worse.

I can't go to the Florida games because I have a trial on Monday the freakin' 29th of December.  ::bang::

I'm sure you've seen this, but it just seems appropriate here...

BUMP!

Hope to see many of you at the tournament.

We'll be selling Cornell sweatshirts and raffle tickets.  The grand prize is 2 hockey sticks signed by the entire team.  All proceeds to support Cornell Scholarship and Cornell Hockey.

Be sure to visit the Cornell Hospitality area above section 114 for refreshments, a cash bar, and to meet the other Big Red enthusiasts in town for the event.  

Go Big Red!

Well, check this out. Sat game listed on B2TV.com. I can't get it to link to Sat Dec. 27, but scroll down to the month and click on 27. It's there.

Edit: Unfortunately when I click "Click for more info" all I get is a link to U Mass-Lowell season pass. hopefully it'll improve as we get closer. It must be on with their listing. ::worry::
