March is normally the start of spring in Calgary, or at least the month of the last major snowstorm of the winter. Given the unseasonably warm weeks in the first half of February, one could be forgiven for thinking March might be the start of summer this year. Unfortunately, this meant that the WHMCA ice rink melted into the grass much earlier than desired.
Many thanks to the rink committee led by Blair Cosgrove, Joseph Chan, and Dave Ironside.
The “Ice Men” included: Logan (who also repaired the rink nets), JF Gagnon, Jason Abbate, Klutch Chahal, Ryan Graham, Xavier LaPrairie, Tyler, Jeremy Walls, Jared, Grant MacEachern, Don Barrett, Darcy, Omar A, and Stephen Carey.
Thanks also to Shawn Gostola and Craig Baskett for maintaining the Marsden Park ice rink!
