give them information on upcoming practices and games. Games start on May 3, 2008 and the full schedules can be

of the Arsenal Youth house league. The league will begin Saturday July 5, and run 10
consecutive Saturdays up to and including September 6, 2008
The fee for registration this year will be $50 per participant and is due by May 20th, 2008.

02/13/2008 10:00 PM: Pro Forma to offer Aurora Arsenal apparel and merchandise
The Aurora Arsenal board met with with East Aurora resident Jim Egan
of Pro Forma who is providing apparel and other merchandise to Arsenal players, parents, and coaches.
Jim is looking at offering some new items for 2008. All items feature the
new and improved logo and are designed to show off your Arsenal pride.
You can order directly from
the proforma website
Also, if you prefer, Jim is very happy to work with you directly by phone, e-mail or in person.
One note: Jim offers a 10% discount for a team order of 10 or more. If you have any questions, I
am sure that Jim will be able to answer them for you.
Bear in mind a portion of every purchase that is made will go directly to the Aurora Arsenal
Building fund. As announced in September of 2006 the Aurora Arsenal has embarked upon a capital
fund raising campaign to construct a building adjacent to the soccer fields at Knox Farm State Park.
The building will have a concession stand, storage area and rest rooms. The Aurora Arsenal are in the
process of raising $300,000 to complete the project. This is one small step to securing the funds
necessary to make that building a reality.
