out of town players will be placed in homes that will best fit their needs
with regards to school, transportation and family values. Players will
be placed in homes in the Blue Valley or Olathe school districts, both
are in close proximity to Pepsi Ice. The host family will receive $250
per month to cover the basic expenses of the billeted player.

Testimonials from Stars Parents
|
Our family had the pleasure of hosting Jon Cook, a KC Stars Midget player this past season. I have to admit that my wife and I were a bit apprehensive about hosting an eighteen year-old young man in our house but the experience was one that the family will treasure. Our six year old son idolized Jon and while our five year old daughter constantly bragged about her new "big brother". My wife appreciated how considerate Jon was around the house and the way he acted as a positive role model for the children. I was impressed by level of responsibility Jon demonstrated and his dedication to improving himself as a hockey player. On several occasions we had Jon's teammates over for dinners and I had a chance spend time with several of the players during an out-of town series in Atlanta. I am convinced that Coach Ferschweiler recruits young men that have integrity and character and he instills responsibility and independence in his players. My family was very fortunate to host Jon and we would welcome him or any of his teammates into our home again. Best Regards, Michael Koch |
