On Saturday July 8, Plumas had their first road hockey tournament, prior to the fair. There were 10 teams overall, four kids teams and six adult teams. They played three on three and there were five players per team. The games started at 10:00 am and ended close to 7:30 pm. The winning team for the kids division was the Redhounds and for the adult division was Brady Walker’s team. While the games were going on, there was also a giant waterslide bouncy castle for the kids. Campfire Crashers, from Winnipeg, came and started playing at 9:00 pm and a community member said, they did a wonderful job. There were fireworks at 10:00 pm.
