The Minot Minotauros are coming to town Brown Bear Fans, and the last series against them was a battle of epic proportions, a hang on the edge of your seat nail biter! You won’t want to miss these games, and you definitely don’t want to miss hanging out at breakfast on Saturday morning with Sam and Carter and the rest of the guys! They’ll be in the Conference room at 9 AM before their pre-game skate supporting the KPHA Ice Hawks U12 team, because that’s what the Brown Bears are all about! They help our local youth in so many ways! Whether its hanging out at the Kenai Boys and Girls Club, or taking time out before a big game to rub elbows with our young hockey players. When you stop in for a bite see if you can find Sam and ask him when Leif Erikson Day is! Carter will be at the buffet table, but I know he’ll be happy to tell you ALL about the last gruesome game against the Minotauros ! See you at the rink!
