Welcome Josh Dority
As many of you know my last day will be this Saturday. I will truly miss all of you and look forward to seeing you down the road.

Cyr Athlete Awards
We will be having an athlete dinner on November 22nd, immediately following the conclusion of bowling. This event will be free for athletes and volunteers and we will be presenting our annual CYR awards. We would love to have every team in the region nominate a CYR athlete. This athlete should truly represent the training club in the very best way and be committed to training and competition. Please nominate your CYR’ athletes and e-mail to rmitchell@nyso.org. Please ensure that your nomination is able to attend the athlete’s dinner on November 22nd. Thanks in advance.
