The ice is in at Art Holding Memorial Arena year round. That means, the academy and many hockey camps are able to be held close to home.
Heat hockey officials have been busy throughout the past couple of months, seeking players to don the white, red and black.
The latest addition to the ranks is 19-yearold Shayne Woodland, a 6’1” left defenceman from Kamloops. He was acquired recently from the Osoyoos Coyotes in an effort to shore up the back end.
