(Today, there was no sense trying to find anything out just yet.) However, if we are unable to make our Monday morning deadline for our print edition, we'll certainly update the information as we secure it. I've got an entire day with no children tomorrow (they are away at hockey) so I should be able to hunt some folks down. Keep checking back and feel free to share any names of those you think could help me in my quest. As yet, I have no one in the area for contacts, but I expect I will by Sunday.

One of my woping two goals in senior hockey came in that rink and I'll never forget it. What I am really curious about now and I hope the staff at the badger can did up the information for me are these questions. I am sure a lot of them may take a little bit of time to come out. 1) Will teams be able to play at the newer arena of the event centre any time soon? 2) To what extent was the damage to the new building? 3) Will the Junior Klippers be able to complete their Junior A season in the newer arena or will they be forced to play out of a neighbouring centre like Rosetown or Eston if ice is even avaiable? Of course this is somewhat linked to the first question. 4) What effect will this have on ice useage at neighbouring arena's like in Coleville, Dodsland and Brock and are these viable options for the Kindersley Minor Hockey teams to use? 5) What kind of insurance was on the building and what plans will be in place to rebuild? with what kind of a time span? 6) This also leaves the Kindersley Red Lions Senior Team without a home since this was the arena they used. Where does this leave them? 7) I also heard a rumour that the fire started in the furance room. Is there truth to this or is this something the RCMP doesn't want published? I am sure there are a tonne of other questions I could ponder up, but those are the ones I am most curious about.
