Families come from all around NB to enjoy a weekend of skating, sliding, and pond hockey fun. For some, including Roy Matheson it has been a family long tradition.
Being the oldest guy playing, Matheson had the experience of winning the championships in 2006, and faced off with the Prime Minister last year.
For the people of Miramichi, this event gets better every year. Volunteers come from everywhere to help out, prizes are given out to those who attend, and this year, the real memorial cup came for a visit.
This is an important event for families and friends, and even more for the community. For the first time in 6 years, the community celebrated with fireworks. A perfect ending to a true Miramichi tradition. Today is February 7, and it marks the end of a very important weekend here in Miramichi. It is officially the last day of the pond hockey tournament, and who ever takes home the championships gets there very own jerseys and their name on a very important trophy.
