In the spirit of the Peewee International Hockey Tournament, being hosted by Aldergrove this year, American Nolan Wagner (of Wisconsin’s Hudson Raiders) and South Korean H.K. Song (of Gwacheon’s Little Winia) are greeted by Aldergrove Kodiaks’ Junior Hockey mascot Kody at Aldergrove Arena.
The 10 visiting teams from six countries are playing a series of games here until March 24, and are also looking forward to viewing games with the Kodiaks and Abbotsford Heat, among other events and sightseeing.
Representatives from Hachinohe, Japan, performed traditional songs as well as a singalong version of (It’s a) Small Word for the International Friendship Hockey Tournament fundraising auction, Monday evening at Aldergrove Legion.
