“It is great to live in a small town and surrounding areas that give such great support,” said committee member Carlee Annis.

The Arcola Minor Hockey Day was held on Feb. 11 at the Arcola Prairie Place Complex, with eight teams participating throughout the day.

The day started off with sponsors CEDA and Arcola Co-op covering the door charge so everyone who wanted to come out and watch the games could do so for free. The Co-op also provided the treats for the players.

Arcola’s under-seven team started off the day by defeating Kipling, which was followed by the U9s. They narrowly lost to Redvers in a tense and tight game, keeping the crowd on their toes throughout the game.

As the day carried on, two more games would be played, including the U11s against Estevan and the U13 Combines against the Redvers Rockets. All the games brought cheers from the large crowds.

“It is great to live in a small town and surrounding areas that give such great support,” said committee member Carlee Annis.

The donation for the PS5 was given by Pheasant Rump First Nation and the super deker was donated by Merit Ford out of Carlyle. The winners of these raffle draws were Layne Birnie of Arcola and Kai Axten of Redvers.

Regal Autobody sponsored the athlete awards for Heart and Hustle and MVP given out at the end of every game.

Throughout the day a progressive 50/50 was held and the winning ticket holder was Garry Matthewson, who took home $332.

Annis said the committee is very thankful for the support of all the sponsors and donations they received. These events are made possible with their support. A huge thank you also to all the people who helped out during the day.

Arcola will be hosting U9 playoffs from March 17-19 at the Arcola Prairie Place Complex.
