Thank you

February 26, 2012

To the Washington Junior Nationals organization, players, families, and fans,

This past season with the Washington Junior Nationals has been by far and away one of the most unique in my career. You all are a great team; the camaraderie and willingness to work with Brian and myself made it a real pleasure to be part of your organization. We consider this past season one of our most successful.

This coming season, I regret to announce that we will not be returning to The Gardens Ice House to call Washington Junior Nationals hockey. The decision was a tough one to make, but due to travel, time, and other factors, we needed to make a change.
We wish the guys the best of luck in the upcoming season. We would like to send out a special thanks to the player’s families, friends, and fans, for all their support.

Go Nats, and Don’t Stop Believing!

David & Brian
