	Lead concern prompts recall of boys' ice skates
	An Anoka distributor of boys' recreational ice skates is participating in a voluntary national recall because of concerns about lead, federal regulators announced this morning. About 600 pair of Chinese-made DBX Glide Boys Ice Skates, distributed by Pronto Sports Inc. of Anoka, are being recalled because the skates "contain excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard," said the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. The lead is in the paint on the skates' exterior, the commission said. The skates are black with lime green and silver accents. "Glide" is printed on a rubber tag on the side of the skates. "DBX" and the DBX logo are on the ice skate's ankle strap, tongue and heel. They were sold nationally at Dick's Sporting Goods from September 2008 through December 2008. Consumers who have the skates are urged to immediately take them from children and contact Pronto Sports for a full refund. Pronto Sports can be reached at 1-877-755-4882 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. CDT Monday through Friday or visit the www.prontosports.com.

	Fax Your Score Sheets to District 6
	All scoresheets from games and scrimmages involving a referee must be faxed to District 6. All Girls scoresheets must also be faxed to District 6, even for those playing out of district. A $25 fee will be assessed to teams if scoresheets are not submitted within 24 hours.

	Official EHA Traveling Warm-Ups
	In an effort to promote a unified and consistent image as our teams travel to other communities, we have designed an official Edina Hockey Association Traveling Warm-Up Suit. We encourage each team to consider offering the official EHA warm-up as an apparel option at the beginning of the season. Coaches and/or Managers should collect orders and place them with the EHA at one time. The EHA warm-up is 2-piece hockey warm-up suit manufactured by EASTON. It features two high-quality embroidered EHA hockey hornet logo patches which adorn both the zipper front jacket and the matching warm-up pants. The cost of the warm-up suit is only $70.00. Retail value is $110.00. So it's a great deal. We are selling the Jacket and the Pants as separates if you prefer; each piece is $35.00. Players' first or last names can be embroidered for only $5.00 for each piece. Traveling Warm-Up Suits are in-stock and available now through the EHA. Please allow 1-2 weeks for the EHA to coordinate delivery. A printable order form, that includes sizing information, can be downloaded by clicking the following link: order form. Print the form and mail it with your check, payable to the Edina Hockey Association. To view an image of the Official EHA Traveling Warm-Up, click on our PDF file for photos and a sizing chart.

	Donate Old Skates and Sticks
	The City of Edina is collecting ice skates and hockey sticks to be used at Lewis Park and other outdoor rinks for public use. Many of us have used skates and sticks in our homes and this is a great opportunity to share with others who can not afford these things. The drop location is Braemar Ice Arena and Edina City Hall. General Sports has generously agreed to clean up and sharpen the skates and Hockey Giant has also made donations to this program. Please consider helping us out with this wonderful project!! If you have any questions, please contact Sarah Miller at 952-944-7420
