Bender 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 In case anybody is interested, the Red Wing alumni will be playing a charity game on Saturday March 31st @ 4pm in Monroe, Michigan at the Monroe Multi-Sports Complex on N. Dixie Hwy (734) 242-1300. Tickets are only $10 each and both Igor & Mickey are scheduled to play as well as several other Wings alumni. Sorry if this is old news, but I thought that there may be a few other board members in the area who might like to see this. The rinks there only hold several hundred people at best, so this is a good chance to see an alumni game up close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bender 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2007 Funny you should mention that about the ice - it definitely isn't the greatest by any stretch of the imagination - but they do run alot of different programs out of that facility that keeps us going back there.

metalwinger_13 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2007 ya you ar true on the ice.. maybe because its the only one near monroe that isnt a drive that will have open ice.. i think the nearest one is the ice house in toledo which seems like a ok rink .. more for playing hockey an dnot for skating and all the other public things monroe puts on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bender 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2007 The Toledo Ice House generally has a better ice suface, but it definitely is a dedicated hockey facility - not that there is anything wrong with that. Tam o' Shanter in Sylvania (just east of Toledo) also has better ice and offers several public programs & ice time for anyone from casual or competitive skaters. Then there is the Taylor sportsplex, which I have never been to myself but I have heard that it is similar to Tam-o. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
