Fall Update

2020 Casino

Now that table games have re-opened, we have confirmation from AGLC that we will go ahead with a casino on November 28th and 29th. There will be a reduced requirement of volunteers for this casino, but it is still imperative that we provide the necessary amount. Please make notes of these dates in your calendars. Additional contact will follow shortly.

Ice Rentals for NAIT Arena

Due to significant cuts to budgeting, the NAIT Executive is taking a very focused look at the arena operations and have put a significant amount of pressure on the arena staff to sell ice. There is a lot of ice available @ NAIT for great rates. If you coach an Edmonton area minor hockey team or are looking for a weekly time to play some pick up with some pals, please reach out to Terry Baumgartner (terrybau@nait.ca). Rates are attached to this email.

Annual Golf Friendraiser

Although golf has been possible during COVID-19, due to delays in the 2020/2021 ACAC hockey season and the resulting delays in the arrival of players to NAIT to begin training, we have had to cancel our annual golf event with the team. This is meant to be an annual event and our hope is that things are in a much better state next year.

Weekly Skates, Alumni Cup and AGM

We have received confirmation from NAIT that our weekly skate slots (Saturdays from 3:30-4:30) are a GO for this year. Our weekly skates are scheduled to begin on October 3rd (this Saturday). There will be additional protocols that we must follow due to COVID-19 and a separate email will be sent to those alumni in the Edmonton area who are most likely to attend the skates. As of now, the annual Alumni Cup Tournament as well as our AGM are on hold indefinitely.

2020/2021 ACAC Hockey Season

The ACAC will make a final decision on whether or not a 2020/2021 season will take place on October 15th. As of now, the 2020/2021 season is not expected to start until January 2021. We will update everyone once a final announcement is made.
