Syracuse this Saturday with the good folks at the Crunch and Aspen Dental spear heading another fund raising effort for a good cause….the Make-A-Wish Foundation of central New York.
 
The hockey day begins with a "masters" hockey game (players generally age 50 and older) between the Syracuse Graywolves and the Rochester Rocker hitting the ice at 3:30 pm.  I will be in goal for Syracuse.  It’s revenge time for the Graywolves as last year we were outshot and outscored by Rochester, the game ending with a 4-2 score
       
Later in the day Saturday, 7:30 pm to be exact, the Syracuse Crunch take on Rochester Americans for the “real” game.  Here is the official 
Crunch Press Release.

 As always, the Crunch, from Howard Dolgon the President to Vance Lederman the General Manager to Jim Sarosy, Senior Vice President right on down to the players have always been there anxious to get involved and help central New York in any way they can. The great folks at Aspen Dental have always been there as well supporting our community in whatever way they can. Great organizations coming together for a great cause, the Make-A-Wish Foundation of central New York.

 Admission is FREE!  Hope to see you there.  3:30 pm this Saturday the puck drops!

Where is the spring weather?   

Snow in central New York in April - we may not like it, but the fact is, it's normal. Climate averages tell us that Syracuse averages 3.8 inches of snow in the month of April.

Old Man Winter isn’t giving up yet. A complex storm heading into the upper Great Lakes, redeveloping along the mid Atlantic Coast, means many of us will have a little shoveling to do.
