EAGLE RIVER - Crews will work around the clock to make sure the rinks are ready for Pond Hockey in Eagle River on Friday. Teams from all over the country are in the Northwoods for the tournament.
The Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship will be at the Amsoil Eagle River Derbytrack. This is the tournament's tenth year. Crews have been making ice and carving rinks for two weeks. There will be 24 rinks.
"We're kind of segmented compared to what we're used to on the lake, but the ice is going to be good," said Scott Aldrich, USA Hockey's manager for adult hockey.
"The firemen here in Eagle River and our crew from STAR have been working hard."
