The 98Vipers and 00Vipers teamed up this Christmas and instead of the team pitching in for their coaches with the usual gift cards or golden whistle, each player from both teams brought in a toy and a donation in the coaches names was made to the Ace Bailey Childrens Foundation - Child Life Wish List Toy Drive. All the toys were collected and were dropped off this past Saturday and are getting ready to be delivered to the Floating Hospital for Children.

XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING COOL
 
If you wish to thank our members of the armed services, you can do so by accessing this web site: www.LetsSayThanks.com

Once you access the site and pick out a thank you card, Xerox will then print the card and send it to a soldier who is currently serving in Iraq.  You cannot pick out who receives the card, but it will go to a member of the armed services.
 
It is FREE, takes just 10 seconds, and is a wonderful way to say thank you.  Please take the time to send the card and to pass it on for others to do.  We can never say enough thank you's.
 
Thanks for taking time to support our military!

This past weekend the 98Vipers dawned Yellow Laces in their game against the Dual State Huskies.  The Yellow Laces were worn to show their support for Caleb Amidon.   The  Vipers organization's thoughts and prayers go out to this little boy & his family! 

Caleb Amidon, a seven year old fun loving boy from Pepperell, MA and a Nashua hockey player on the Pro Ambition Mite Major team has been very seriously injured this past week. He remains in the ICU at Children's Hospital in Boston

We are asking you to pray very hard for Caleb and his family. Ask your friends, neighbors, coworkers or place of worship, to include Caleb in thoughts and prayers.  Every time you step into a hockey rink say a prayer for Caleb and his family.  There is nothing like the power of prayer.

I know that all of you are concerned about Caleb's condition so this blog will allow you to view his status. Caleb's mother Rachel has been updating this.
Caleb's Blog
  The Nashua Panther Organization has set up a special fund for the Amidon family. Caleb's hockey team has already raised over $1000.00 dollars.

If you or anyone you know wishes to contribute to this cause you can make checks payable to:

"Nashua Panther Caleb Amidon Fund" 
PO Box 911,
Nashua NH 03061 

Let's all get behind this cause and demonstrate, as an organization,  as a community, as people, what we are capable of. The Amidon family will be made aware of your generosity.

The website is now active.  Coaches will be distributing the assigned Usernames, Passwords & Instructon Sheets for all players this week.  All players have been issued a Username & Password to access their account.  Please remember that the passwords are case sensitive.  If you experiencing any issues, please email: vipers@vipersicehockey.com

Thanks

Vipers Coaches and Families,

We are loading the schedules for the season into our website but please consider all of it "tentative" until we can confirm with the other teams AND all could change after the parity (Jamboree) weekends in September.  For now be patient, we know the schedules are important.

One final note, we do not have any specific schedule information for the weekends of the Jamboree in September.  As soon as we have them, you will have them.
