Hockey Parents, please read the following crucial announcement concerning the future of our Arena, and our Hockey Program:

The Becker-Big Lake Ice Association is requesting Big Lake City approval for funding towards our Ice Arena.  Specifically, using tax revenue generated by the Great River Energy project soon to be located in the Big Lake Market Square.  This is a significant amount of money and is crucial to the Ice Arena’s future. 

The tax revenue is divided amongst the City of Big Lake, Big Lake Township, Big Lake School District and Sherburne County. Total revenue is over $90,000 per year over a 20 year period. This is the first step in getting City approval. Once approved by the City Council, we will approach the other entities.

The Big Lake City Council will be voting on this Wednesday, May 14^th, 2008 at 7:00pm.

We need your help!!!!!!

This is a huge decision and will have a significant impact on our goal of building an Ice Arena.

What every hockey parent and player needs to do:

Just show up at 6:45pm on Wednesday, May 14^th, at the Big Lake City Council Chamber.  Wear BBL apparel to demonstrate support if possible.  This presence of community support can have a huge impact on how council members vote.

Thank you for your continued support!!!!
