With the completion of last week's Vipers Boot Camp, the 2008-09 hockey season is officially underway.  Besides a few blisters from new skates and a couple out-of-shape coaches, the camp was a successful kickoff for the program.  Every team came prepared to work hard and get ready for the upcoming Labor Day tournament.  A special thanks to the St. John's Prep hockey players that came down and helped instruct the drills.  The on-ice regimen consisted of a gradual shift from power skating to overspeed training to puckhandling.  

      

 The off-ice trainers were very impressed that  all the teams gave 100% effort in everything they were asked to do.  

Not only did the Boot Camp prepare us physically for the upcoming season, but it also gave us a great opportunity for team buliding exercises and helped us welcome our newest Vipers.    

          

 

There were some fantastic raffle anonomously donated last week.  These items were raffled off on the last night of camp.  And the winners are...

Recchi Shirt - Heath King

Paul Kariya game worn gloves - Bob DeGregorio

Ovechkin signed Capitals Hat - Ryan O'Keefe

Paul Mara signed Stick - Bob Palmereri

RBK stick - Jack Moretti

RBK stick - Robbie Murphy
