Hold Back the Snow Info!

HBTS Player Info:

Attention : Our departure time has changed.  Be at the bus ready to load your gear by 12:00 noon.
We will be leaving promptly at 12:30 pm.  

The cost for Winnipeg this year will be $285.00 per player. This year's tournament, as you know, is a 3 day event! We've worked hard to keep the price down and the total reflects anticipated profits from the See's candy bar sale. The fundraising dollars from the candy bar sales was used to lower the overall cost of transportation. Cost includes: transportation via a Northfield coach bus complete with wifi and video options. Busing everyone to Winnipeg, back and forth to the tournament each day, and home. Also included in the cost is the hotel, breakfast, field snacks, all tournament fees, and coach expenses. The tournament hosts a BBQ dinner on Saturday night for players and coaches, but we've found in the past that our players often like to order pizzas or some other type of food later in the evening. They are also responsible for their dinner Friday night on the way to Winnipeg, and Sunday night on the way home. The bus will stop at a mall with a food court or a strip mall with a variety of fast food choices (so that's 3 meals that each player is responsible for). They may also want some money for tournament gear (discs, shirts, shorts, etc). We will be bringing typical "ultimate" snacks to the field for each team, but if players have specific foods they like to have at every tournament, they should bring those themselves. There is tournament food available for lunch for players.  PLEASE remember to bring at least 1 refillable water bottle; 2 would be better!


We will be leaving from the back of the Adath Parking lot, directly behind Lindbergh Center, Thursday October 17 at 12:30 pm; this means you need to be there 12:00 pm check in and load your things on the bus.  We typically arrive back to Adath between 12:00-12:45am Monday morning.  When the final tournament schedule is posted, this may change.

We will need a photo copy of everyone's passport, as well as a signed parent permission slip along with your check, no later than Friday October 11th, 2013. (If you have already given us a copy of your passport, thank you!) You can mail it to me, bring it to practice and give to Erin/Finn or Ben Pavelka, or drop it off at my house! But in order to expedite the process of border crossing, all passport information will be sent ahead to border control by Tuesday October 15th...this is a FINAL date. Please get this info in as soon as possible.

Make checks out to HOPKINS ULTIMATE mail them to -

PARENT INFO - For parent chaperones traveling with us, the cost of riding on the bus will be $70.00. Your hotel accommodations are being held with the team under Hopkins Ultimate. Once the kids have their room assignments and are settling in, you will then switch the reservation to your name and credit card.  Breakfast is included! I will be on the bus as far as Fargo where I will be picking up a car and driving the rest of the way to Winnipeg.  I feel it's important to have a car for incidentals that we might need as well shuttling chaperones to and from the fields. And the all important coffee runs!

Thank you!
Debbi
