We will be visiting all of their middle schools. To date, we have also visited Jefferson and Swanson Middle Schools."</blockquote> As for the selection criteria I'm not sure exactly how that works, but I'm sure if your school district is interested you can contact the Capitals for more details. Hope this helps! More information courtesy of the Capitals:

I take pictures for UMD's womens hockey team and for the Face Off Hockey Show. Feel free to email me and I can let you know about a good camera, somewhat small, decent price ... it's the one I use for games and the NHL draft.

My equipment's nothing special... hey, wait, that sounds wrong... :) I have a decent but aging Sony digital camera, no SLR or anything fancy. Definitely considering an upgrade soon though... if anyone has advice for a quality digital camera balanced with a small case (I don't want to lug around telephoto lenses at this point), please consider emailing me directly. Thanks! Thanks for the photo compliments folks!

The event was really fun for all involved... Green, Ovie and Evason were grinning from ear to ear. As for the denting-the-net photo, I took about a dozen pics while he was shooting and got lucky with that one. :) Thanks for the kudos.
