The 14U D2, 12U D1, and 10U D2 Jaramillo teams had games in Vernal, Utah on Saturday morning. Many players found Vernal to be an exciting destination to play hockey; the Vernal fans are very supportive in their hockey program and it was neat to experience the small town hockey scene.
Jude Fleming: "It was really fun. The games were fun and the hotels were really nice. My memory from Vernal was swimming."
Asher Jaramillo: "Don't pick your boogers on a bumpy road. And the hotels were really nice."
Indy Bonham: "It was really cold."

PICTURE DAY SCHEDULE
Bring your players and coaches to the Peaks 20 minutes earlier than their picture day timeslot (below) so your player will have plenty of time to get dressed and ready for photos. Team photos will be taken at the designated time below -- DO NOT be late for team photos. There is no way to do retakes of team photos so if your player is late for their team's timeslot, your player will risk not being in the team photo.
**12U D1 and 10U D1 Teams: please note that you have two timeslots - one for individual photos and one for team photos; this is because we want all team photos to be taken on the North rink.**

COACH'S SPOTLIGHT: BRIAN BLUM
HEAD COACH FOR 16U TRAVEL A
| |
|
My dad was a student and big fan of DU – Denver University NCAA hockey. He loved the sport and put my brother and me into the game at an early age. I played some travel hockey in Portland, Oregon, and had the chance to be beaten badly at USA hockey Nationals as a Pee Wee. I moved and played high school hockey in Berkeley, California. My High School hockey days had less fame, but way more fun and are my favorite years. I later played the first two years of the BYU Ice Cats out at the Utah Lake rink, so cold that some slapshots against the boards would break pucks into two!
I have been coaching for 18 years. I have four sons (Hugh, Hunter, Hatrick, & Heath) and have had the privilege to coach them all. I have coached several Polar Bear and now Predator teams. I also coach the UCI-North Warriors high school team, and we managed to win the State Championship last year. I love the energy from the kids and love seeing them develop new skills and strategies. My number one rule on all teams is No Cannibalism. Attitude and supporting your teammates are so important in hockey and life.
