Please do not feel obligated to come to the rink if you do not feel safe traveling on snow and ice-covered roads.  We do advise you to notify your coach if you will not be able to make a practice or game.  Coaches, please contact your team if you know that you will not be there or would like to cancel a practice.  We will make every effort to notify your team if any interleague games are canceled or if any visiting team does not want to travel due to unsafe travel conditions.
