Remembering Our Friend Felicia
Felicia was never the type to want or seek acclaim for all the great work she did with the league. If you have ever had breakfast at the rink on a Saturday morning, or just picked up a cold drink from the concession stand, then you know how big a role she played in making sure each an every season ran smoothly. Also, her and her brother’s restaurant, Vitale’s, always purchased a board sign and sponsored a team.
Felicia was a key part of our program’s growth over the past few years, because without her help – and the help of everyone who volunteered their time in the concession stand – we wouldn’t have had the funds needed for referees, equipment, or the awards dinner each and every season.
Felicia’s dedication and contributions to our program will never be forgotten. On behalf of all the players and friends of the Lyndhurst Youth Hockey League, we want to say ‘thank you’ one last time.
We miss you…

In lieu of flowers, the Roveda Family has asked that donations be made in Felicia's name to the American Cancer Society.

2009 LYHL Season - Status of Rink
We understand that many players and parents are frustrated this season by the lack of games and overall condition of our rink. This season was delayed by almost a month and did not start until Monday October 5, 2009. After only playing a handful of games this season, the LYHL has once again postponed games because the rink surface is just not safe.
We all remember the commitment that was made at the annual LYHL Awards Dinner last April when our program was promised a new rink. However, spring and summer passed without the construction of a new rink because the project proved more difficult and expensive than originally thought. Please understand that the current rink could only be patched up and the Lyndhurst Department of Parks and Recreation is working to repair the rink so we can continue the season as soon as possible.
The LYHL understands that many players, parents, and friends of our program have questions about the season and our rink. We will be happy to answer as many questions as we can, and suggest that you contact us via email (lyndhursthockey@yahoo.com).
Below are two articles from The Record explaining how much money was obtained for the new rink and some of the challenges keeping the project from moving forward. If you have any further questions, feel free to email the LYHL.
Here's an article from The Record (Thursday August 27, 2009) explaining that bids for the new rink came in over budget. The new rink at Volunteer Field is a complex project, and the $250,000 the Township has obtained should be put towards the project starting in Spring 2010.
The Record: "Price tag for new rink prompts move to fix old one"
Here's another article from The Record (Thursday September 17, 2009) that again mentions the money obtained for the construction of the new rink. Of the initial $350,000 set aside for the project, $100,000 was always intended for a new handicap-accessible bus, again leaving $250,000 for the new rink project.
The Record: "Town bonds another $700K"
The LYHL Executive Board, on behalf of all the coaches and volunteers in the league, sincerely apologize for the inconveniences of the current season. We want to provide the children and parents of the community with the very best recreation roller hockey program possible. The LYHL would not be able to keep this program up and running without you, and we truly appreciate your continued support and patience.
