Snags Anyone?

Aah the smell of snags in the Thursday evening air.
Where is it coming from ...... the little shed?
That's dinner sorted.
Thanks Megan, Dinah and Rachel.
Come and Join us, Everyone.
Dear Hillbillies
is there anyone who would like to write a report for their division? Or at least their team?
If you would like to be a regular reporter please contact Sam  boys@pinehillshockey.org.au  or Robyn treasurer@pinehillshockey.org.au so you can start blogging as soon as possible.
Otherwise just send us a story.  We love to hear what everyone is up to.

Here's a start...........

Is that a reflection off their unifom or egg on their faces .....
who almost called RACQ last Saturday when the keys did not  fit - then they checked the REGO and found out they were breaking into the Wrong Car........
who politely declined the opportunity to play for Uni, even quoting By-Laws to get out of it - then they found out they were being asked to sub for Pine Hills......

Yee Ha

DP Women 5 May

Glorious weather for Hockey today.
Thank you to all the ladies who helped out with getting the jobs done - putting out and bringing in the posts, bins, tables and chairs. Your out of hours work (before 8am and after 5pm) is greatly appreciated. Notably Megan and her children. Hopefully next time there will be even more legs delivering flags in all directions.
Thank you to all those who baked and donated goods for the stall and raffle. Especially if you had to do extra yards to get the products to the field. Notably - Belinda and her Red Velvet cupcakes. They went like......hotcakes. M'mm.
Thank you to all who went down the the field to assist with sales, especially if you trod the sidelines selling tickets. Especially if you don't have children playing in the morning. Notably Rob and Mush and Al and Jacqui - their retail skills are second to none.
Something for next time - more seniors helping between 11 and 1 -  it is very difficult to pack up etc after all the Juniors have gone and other helpers have gone to their games.  Besides - you will get a carpark easier.
Remember - it is better that a lot do a little occasionally than a few do a lot regularly.
Now to the games -
This link will tell you everything

but 1 Draw and 2 Losses left us with some tired and emotional players today.
A big thank you to the Juniors - Moira, Jessica and Jade - for again coming down to help the DP3 Team. You all played wonderfully and the game couldn't have gone on without you.
Cheers - let's stick it to them next week.

Hard Labour Weekend

What a wonderful bunch of willing and tireless workers we have at Pine Hills Hockey Club.
Did you all enjoy having a rest on Monday? Hope so because there was plenty of work for those of you who were ready to roll your sleeves up on Saturday and Sunday.
Early on Saturday a small but eager crew trundled out the garbage bins, put legs on tables, set up the chairs and slotted flags in all the corner post-holes at Downey Park while another crew trundled out goal nets and sizzled sausages at Rasey Park. Some of the same workers then joined another bunch of Happy Hillsers putting their retail skills to good use manning the Cake Stall and doing the rounds of the fields selling Raffle Tickets. Later in the day, there they were again putting it all away. What a team.
Of course it couldn't be done without all the cheerful efforts of those who put in the extra hours on Thursday and Friday by staying up late doing baking, going out to find special articles for the Raffle or putting in extra miles to get goods to the field in time. Well done everyone.
Other clubs will have the joy of doing this service for us over the rest of the season and we will happily put the $872 raised on the day towards some new goal gear. And that was just Saturday.
See our Facebook page for photos of all the hard workers at the Anaconda Sausage Sizzle on Sunday. Some of the same faces and same rolled up sleeves turned out again and joined a fresh crew for what looks like another lot of laughs and stimulating exercise. We have yet to collate the income but $650 seems possible. Well done - you are worth your weight in sausages.
So dear workers - If you were a supplier of goods, manpower, muscles, time, energy, money, or a friendly face, if you helped out in any way over the weekend, Thank you - you did your club proud and most likely you had a great time too. And whatever you did, whenever or where - the fact that you did something, means everything.
