Hi everyone…we hope you like the new LakePlace.com user interface. We have a couple of (expected) bugs to work out…but everything should be running smoothly soon. I will talk more about these exciting changes in the next day or two (I have been up since 6am yesterday and I’m running out of gas).
I did want to write a quick post about State Hockey Tournament coming up tomorrow. Once again, LakePlace.com is a proud sponsor of the Boys & Girls state tourney this year. You can catch the action on KSTC 45.
It’s a really exciting time of year for us. The founders of LakePlace.com (Cameron and myself) were raised in Eveleth, MN and grew up playing on the same hockey teams. (Should have been the PeeWee A state champs – but we blew it in districts – lost to Ely…boy those were tough times!). For those of you who are not familiar with Eveleth – it is one of the most famous hockey towns in the country. Eveleth is the home of the US Hockey Hall of Fame and the town of about 3k people has more state hockey titles and more tournament records than any other town/city in the state.
Anyway, it’s tourney time! Congratulations and Good Luck to all participating schools! Don’t hold it against us…but we have to cheer a little louder for the northern teams. You can take the boy out of the range…but you can’t take the range out of the boy
