Greetings from your Nation's Capitol as we're really excited about hosting
the Phrozen Phour in 2009.  Mary Beth's already scoped out two sites for our
annual party right next to the Verizon Center, and we've convinced the AMC
movie theater next door to show a midnight showing of Slapshot right after
the Friday night skills competition.  

We're also putting together a Democrats vs. Republicans mini-game the night
of the skills competition to give it a Washington sort of stamp on the
event. 

Feel free to contact us with all your inquiries, suggestions and requests
and we will handle them personally, including the ever popular White House
tour. 

As part of our annual holiday trip to my inlaws in Goshen, IN, we've decided
to go to the Friday night games of the GLI.  

Does anyone know if we're meeting as a Hockey L group that night?  Anyone
got suggestions on tickets (e.g. is there a family pack, buy now vs. day of
game, etc...).  

Haven't been back to the Joe since I broke my leg, immediately
passed/blacked out, woke up and looked up and saw the sky blue ceiling and
wondered if I hit the pearly gates of St. Peter.  

Happy Holidays to everyone.  Please drop us a line if you're intending to go
to the game.  We'd love to see you. 

John, Mary Beth, Jack and Carter MacKinnon
