Snoopy Hockey 2008

Another Snoopy senior hockey tournament has come and gone. For the second year, I played with the University of Michigan old timers. As in the past, we brought two teams: 50+ and 60+. Both teams ended up with the silver in their respective divisions, the 50s having lost a tough tilt to the United Nations All-Stars, and the 60s to their rivals, the University of Denver. We won all our other games pretty decisively. I was on the 50s team. This tournament is about much more than hockey, though. When we weren't on the ice, we were playing golf, canoeing, hiking, BBQing, singing and playing guitar, and generally having a good time.
These teams are composed of a nice group of folks from an amazingly diverse cross-section of life. There are guys from just about every profession you can name, and everyone has an interesting story to tell. Already looking forward to next year.
Keep your head up!
