Next Level Ultimate Camp

Hey Boys on Hurt - The Next Level Ultimate camp is happening this summer in nearby Madison, WI. Hurt alum Ben Feldman has been working with a bunch of top-flight ultimate players from across the country to put this together. Unfortunately, ladies, this year the camp is only for the fellas. The intent is to add a girls' camp in the summer of 2010. If you have questions, contact Skip or Feldman, their contact info is below.

Thanks,
Mikey K

Kudos to Peter Ilten, Hustle Tournament Director

Another day remains, but if you are out at the polo grounds today, please thank our volunteer tournament director, Peter Ilten for his excellent work in planning and running the Hustle. Peter, an Ultimate player at Luther College is preparing for graduate school, and Mike Kinsella wooed him into taking on the Hustle.

Also spread the love to Rachel Abrams, a senior, who assisted with planning from day 1 and handled arrangements for our traveling teams, and Laurie Levin (Mama Brick), another planner and on-site score keeper.

Many more thanks still to come for the players, parents and coaches who helped in hundreds of ways!

Hert carpooling to the Hustle Saturday morning

Girls, meet at the HHS Lindbergh lot at 6:45 am, we will leave at 7:00 am.
We have 4 older girls who will be driving to the fields. They are all experienced drivers, but parents, if you would rather drive your daughter yourself, that is fine. Please let us know your plan as a comment at the bottom of this blog posting. Still plan to stop at Lindbergh and check in with the team before heading out. Games start at 9:00, so everyone come on out to cheer for Hert any time Saturday!

If girls need rides back to Lindbergh at the end of the day, we'll call parents with an ETA as we leave the fields. Driving time is about 25 minutes.
