June 1, 2008 - Anonymous Letter

I would like to thank all of the Eagles players who traveled to Finland and treated us to a great season of hockey.
Being young men, I know it was tough on you moving to a foreign country. I hope you left with positive feeling of the city and your experience in Finland. I know we have made some friends with players that we hope will last a life time.


I know speaking for most people the team is very important to us here in Varkaus. As you all know Varkaus is a small city, with lots of politics and agendas.


We were very excited to read that the Eagles were returning for the 2008-09 season. The partnership and affiliates announced in the paper should help the club be successful in Finland. My family and all the young people in the city would have been very sad if the Eagles did not play this season in Varkaus. I personally want to thank all the players for starting something new and exciting in Varkaus. Each player, from the best to the weakest brought excitement to the arena each game. I know the fans await the return of the Eagles to the city.For you guys who are moving on to new teams, I personally want to wish you all the best of luck from the city of Varkaus. The Eagles players brought a level of excitement to the Salvo region which has not been experienced for may years. I hope the city, and the area will get behind the club and support the team. Everyone is still talking about the Eagles and it is June.

Thanks Eagles
From the Fans

The team is really important to younger people in Varkaus. Our kids need things to do and all you have to do is go to rink and look and listen how much our kids like Eagles. September 20 first game.
The Eagles should have more fans this year. Warkis was not even listed as having a team this season in the paper.

The city and Salvo region is very introverted, it will take time for the city to totally embrace the team. It new and people in Finland are very cautious to new things. Warkis is having a team in the Third Divsion. This will help the Eagles with fans for this season. I hope the Eagles and Warkis play this year. There was many people at those games.
