What if I don’t know anything about hockey?

No need to worry! There are tons of members who will be happy to fill you in on what's going on.

Do I need to bring my own instrument?

We require that members bring their own instrument for games. But we are also open to anyone who just wants to cheer with us and have a good time so don't be afraid to join us at the hockey games!

What instruments do you need?

We have music for flute, trumpet, clarinet, saxophone (alto and tenor), trombone,baritone, french horn, and tuba. We are always in need of drummers and percussion! I mean we'll pretty much take you if you just play the kazoo...
