Houston Aeros HockeyJoe O'Donnell

Our guest speaker this week was Joe O'Donnell the voice of the Houston Aeros. He told us about the 15 year history of the Aeros and the general history of Houston hockey...going back to the era of Gordy Howe in the original Aeros in the 70s.

The Aeros were bumped from the Calder Cup Playoffs in the last season but have great plans for the season that starts this fall. It will be Kevin Constantine's second season as head coach for the Aeros.

AerosThe Aeros are workng on the development of a Rotary Night with the Aeros, and the club has been invited to contact Joe about doing our own outing to the Toyota Center for a Aeros game..
